Okay, now that I've actually looked at the traceback, I can add more
information:

update-manager has asked to run a partial upgrade on a few occasions
since I upgraded to Oneiric.  On every single such occasion, when I
clicked the button to run the partial upgrade, update-manager started
going through the update process and then crashed.  I think my last
couple attempts to report that were stymied by the apport crashed that I
mentioned in the first post.  Anyway, it looks like this crash is
related to the partial upgrade problem and is not necessarily an
artifact of update-manager being run after login.

So, I rephrase these:

Expected behavior:  partial upgrades do not crash update-manager.

Observed behavior:  partial upgrades do crash update-manager.  Automated
runs of update-manager after login fail as a side effect.

I've been working around the partial upgrade crash by closing the
partial upgrade prompt and installing whichever packages are checked in
the upgrade manager dialog.  I don't know if that's been a good idea..
