I think your patch is in very good shape now. RMS already commented
on a few things, but other than that, there are only minor things I would
like to suggest you change:
1) Maybe you should use [.]emacs-session.%s for the save file name
rather than just [.]emacs.%s
2) The first line of the doc-string for emacs-session-save could be a little
more generic, as the functionality is explained in the text, i.e. change:
"Run the `emacs-save-session-functions' when window system is closing.
into something like
"This function is called when the window system wants emacs to terminate.
If this function returns non-nil, the window system shutdown is cancelled.

That is ok. Other parts of emacs "core" already calls lisp level
functions in the same way.
