Bug#383889: #383889 -- Password reported as invalid

Package: gnome-screensaver
Version: 2.22.2-2
System: Debian/Stable, 2.6.26-2-amd64

I am also seeing this behavior on my system. Here are the relevant
lines from /var/log/auth.log:

Jun 13 11:39:05 juliet unix_chkpwd[13096]: check pass; user unknown
Jun 13 11:39:05 juliet unix_chkpwd[13096]: password check failed for user (kce)
Jun 13 11:39:05 juliet gnome-screensaver-dialog:
pam_unix(gnome-screensaver:auth): authentication failure; logname=
uid=1001 euid=1001 tty=:0.0 ruser= rhost=  user=kce
Jun 13 11:39:05 juliet gnome-screensaver-dialog: gkr-pam: unlocked
'login' keyring

I'm not running anything like LDAP, just the standard unix
authentication password mechanisms (i.e., the default). Any advice on
how to squash this bug would be great.

Thanks.
