I just updated a Mythbuntu installation from 11.04 via 11.10 to 12.04 and hit this issue, too:
May 27 12:41:26 mythmaster kernel: [ 1850.766321] gdm-simple-slav[5190]: segfault at 0 ip 00007ff5a4fc6fe5 sp 00007ffff7fc0570 error 4 in libnss_compat-2.15.so[7ff5a4fc3000+8000]

disabling autologin in /etc/gdm/custom.conf, as suggested in comment #13, lets me start gdm again. Obviously without autologin which significantly lowers the WAF
AutomaticLoginEnable=true

Bug description:
  After last updates i get these:

  [   24.974182] gdm-simple-slav[1009]: segfault at 0 ip 002945b7 sp bfe9b6c8 error 4 in libnss_compat-2.13.so[291000+6000]
  [   38.598946] gdm-simple-slav[1218]: segfault at 0 ip 00a3b5b7 sp bf9c35c8 error 4 in libnss_compat-2.13.so[a38000+6000]

  and, obviously, no way to get the machine working.
  The unique way is to Ctrl+Alt+F1 and then login and then startx, but also with this way there's no way to have the shell, just gnome2-style panels.
