So I close this again. The initially reported bug was fixed in comment
3, and it was determined that the people who still experience this have
a local configuration which disables locking.

I verified the default settings in karmic:

 * /apps/gnome-screensaver/lock_enabled is "false" by default (locking
after screen saver timeout), which still makes sense IMHO. It was like
this in all previous Ubuntu releases, changing it now would be
unexpected, and you can easily enable it in the screensaver settings.

 * /apps/gnome-power-manager/lock/use_screensaver_settings is also false
by default, and /suspend and /hibernate are true, meaning that it does
lock by default.

** Summary changed:

- Does not lock screen on lid close when using gdm autologin
+ Does not lock screen on lid close

** Changed in: gnome-power-manager (Ubuntu Karmic)
       Status: Incomplete => Fix Released
