I have included gdm in the DAEMON list in my /etc/rc.conf. I tried to
run it from inittab in a more usual way and get the same ?!

When I looked at /usr/sbin/gdm, I found the cause of this problem, look
at that

#!/bin/sh
#
# A script so that
#    1) we read the standard system env vars
#    2) syadmins/integrators can add their own private options etc...

test -f /etc/profile && . /etc/profile

# Make sure LANG is set
#
if [ -z "$LANG" ]
then
  if [ -f /etc/sysconfig/language ]
  then
    LANG=`. /etc/sysconfig/language; echo $RC_LANG`
    export LANG
  fi
fi

exec /usr/sbin/gdm-binary "$@"

Note: it's not a custom archlinux script. This is straight from gdm
release 2.30.4

so it's a non-login shell (sh) script that source /etc/profile and
breaks standard behavior. no wonder that bash_completion stuff is run
there
