Thanks! Here's another procedure to get more information:
sudo killall system-tools-backends
sudo gdb /usr/sbin/system-tools-backends
break dispatcher.c:547

Then, type this block everytime gdb stops, i.e. once when you start users-admin, and once everytime you change your name:
next
print (message_uid == uid)
print message_uid
print uid
continue

The error during the second attempt was coming from the fact that gdb was blocking the program - it needed 'continue' to go on.
