Yes, saw that after I posted.  (As you might imagine, drafting that one
took a while, and several people including you posted more in the
interval.)

As I already said, that increases the likelihood that your basic problem
is protocol support in the production copy of rdesktop you're using
(with or without the bloatware GNOME front-end thing).  So, my
suggestion is as stated:  Compile the trunk version of rdesktop, and see
if it works.  Also, mv the ~/.rdesktop subdirectory out of the way.

If that doesn't work, give up and try a completely different approach.
