We do wait to start the session until PAM authorizes us. But it's true that lightdm apparently likes to reach into the user's home directory before PAM authorizes us.

I tested by forcing lightdm to treat "/tmp" as the user's home directory and this problem went away. So what I think is happening is that lightdm opens a file in /home/user and that prevents the ecryptfs mount from happening...
