Has there been any update on this defect? I have a fresh install of Ocelot, and 
have the same outputs as Michael for
 *  gnome-screensaver --debug
 *  ls -l /etc/shadow
 *  ls -l /dev/null

I have 4 layouts set up that I switch between using double-shift:
 *  English (international AltGr dead keys)
 *  English (programmer Dvorak)
 *  English (US)
 *  English (Dvorak)

My default layout for the login screen is programmer Dvorak.

If I lock the screen manually using Windows + L, and I type the same
password (at least as far as keystrokes), regardless of the layout
chosen, I cannot log in. However, if I click Switch User, I am back at
the initial login screen, where my password works fine.

Therefore, clicking Switch User and entering the correct password there
seems to be a workaround.

I can provide any other logs or information required as well.
