Same situation as Ace (above)
I upgraded today from 11.04 to 11.10 and am experiencing the same problem here [Invalid UTF-8].
michael@saturn:~
$ grep michael /etc/passwd
michael:x:1101:2011:Michael:/home/michael:/bin/bash
$ dpkg -s indicator-session|grep Version
Version: 0.3.6-0ubuntu2
$ env | grep LANG
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
Contrary to Felix Möller (felix-derklecks) above, setting UID_MIN 500 in /etc/login.defs did NOT fix this problem.
$ grep UID_MIN /etc/login.defs
UID_MIN 500
