Update: that didn't quite do it. I got the secondary profile up and running
perfectly, but the primary still gives the errors. I get to a terminal in
the primary profile by waiting for a window to popup, asking me to update my
encryption passphrase (which I never had before). It lets me run
"ecryptfs-unwrap-passphrase" and opens a terminal for me. From there, I can
only run "sudo gnome-panel", and I'm in the root profile. The system was
updated from the secondary profile, and restarting the primary profile
continues the usual error messages.

What else to try?
