Encrypted Private Directory Not Mounted at Logon

Bug description:
Binary package hint: ecryptfs-utils

When logging in, a user's encrypted private directory is no longer automatically mounted.

As a workaround, ecryptfs-mount-private works to mount the directory. If user's entire home directory is encrypted, this is a pretty big issue as user must drop to tty at GDM to mount the directory before returning to graphical logon and proceeding to log in to session.
