I removed the second line. Now it works. WindowMaker is started and 
GWorkspace.app is started although now I don't know by whom. I added 
the following entries to ~/GNUstep/Defaults/WMRootMenu.

	 ("GWorkspace", EXEC, 
"/opt/GNUstep/System/Applications/GWorkspace.app/GWorkspace"),
         ("WPrefs", EXEC, "/opt/GNUstep/Local/Apps/WPrefs.app/WPrefs"),

Does this cause GWorkspace to be automatically stared at login? I am 
confused.
