The change from 3.0.4-0ubuntu16 is trivial: two lines plus a bit of
quilt noise. For me at least the crash is easily reproduced by
activating automatic login, and the patch fixes it. Would be lovely to
have this uploaded if possible. Thanks for considering.

Appearently still happening in Precise (on two of my systems). Please
fix it for the LTS, thanks!

I can confirm this bug still exists on Precise.
IMHO it should have higher importance, as it is a show-stopper.

It happened to me in Ubuntu 12.04. I uninstalled unity and unity-2d and
installed gdm and gnome-shell. When I rebooted, everything was working
fine. But when I selected the option Don't ask for password while
logging in from System-settings - user accounts, the next time
rebooting hung with the

Possibly not the same problem, but I had set up auto-login for a new
user without thinking about it. Going back into user manager and
switching off auto-login appears to have fixed my gdm issue.

MeToo.
After upgrading from 10.04 to 10.10, 11.04, then 11.10, I started
getting this bug.
The fix for me was to disable autologin (and other options?) by doing this
mv /etc/gdm/custom /etc/gdm/custom.conf.bak and rebooting.

Btw bug can be easily workarounded
$ sudo apt-get install lightdm
$ sudo nano /etc/X11/default-display-manager
and write to it: /usr/sbin/lightdm (instead of /usr/sbin/gdm for gdm)
I can work with out distractions now :)
Thanks

seems a bug in the recent gdm update:
home_dir_using_ecryptfs (const gchar *username)

info = getpwnam (username);
that call is done with a NULL username
