xfce4-session 4.12.1-3ubuntu1

xfce4-session determines which buttons to grey out on the logout dialogue box
by calling
polkit_check_authorization_sync for the action org.freedesktop.login1.reboot
etc.

However, if polkit policy permits these actions but denies
org.freedesktop.login1.reboot-multiple-sessions, and multiple users are logged
in, the restart button on the logout dialogue box will be enabled even though
the user isn't able to reboot the machine.

xfce4-session should instead use the CanReboot (etc.) methods on
systemd-logind, which will automatically correctly check the correct polkit
permissions.

I attach a patch to xfsm-systemd.c which works for me.
