Public bug reported:

Install likewise-open and join a domain
install libpam-mount and set up a share to mount
Modify common-session so likewise open and pam mount work together (see bug 
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/likewise-open5/+bug/552001)

Log in as a new user from the domain (but who does not yet have a home on the 
local machine)
pam_mount will mount the share, but everything in /etc/skel isn't copied over.

To prove pam_mount is the issue edit common-session and remove the
reference to pam_mount

Log in as a new user and we can see files in /etc/skel are copied over.
Of course now we have no shares.

In a typical user creation the files are copied right away and this
issue is avoided. By when logging into a domain the user is created at
first login. I am unsure if this happens only to likewise open or to any
login mechanism that creates the home folder on the fly.
