I don't have a specific test for you to perform at the moment, but my
first instinct, when I read your initial post some days ago, was that
this was very indicative of a network timeout. I'm not a gnome expert
by any means, so I'm glad Brian is helping, but I'd not give up the
network configuration angle as another possible configuration issue.
Especially since you mention you recently changed nsswitch.conf (and
friends). Additionally, it occurs to me during Brian's
troubleshooting with you that that sort of thing (network timeout) is
often not logged with a default configuration, which is why you
wouldn't see it in any of the normal logs. I suspect truss'ing would
eventually find the network timeout issue if that really is the
culprit.
One thing you can try to do, though, in the mean time, is try using
simpler (or older) versions of nsswitch.conf (try with just files or
dns). If you recently added ldap for any reason, then I might even be
persuaded to put money down on a bet.

But I actually never did any changes to the nsswitch.conf file. The file

The only change I did was to add entries in the hosts which resolved the
delay that occurred during login with ssh.
