Binary package hint: policykit
For some reason, the PolicyKit "authenticate" dialogue's username combo box has 3 commas appended to the text. For instance, it says "Bruce Cowan,,, (bruce)" here.

This can be reproduced by going to System > Administration > Users and Groups and then clicking Unlock. Probably something is getting the gecos field out of the passwd file and failing to parse it properly.
