I've temporarily fixed it based on Conor Curran's fix, here's what I
did:
1 ) sudo apt-get build-dep indicator-session
2) apt-get source indicator-session
3 ) cd indicator-session-0.3.7
4) # change the following line in ./src/users-service-dbus.h
#define MAXIMUM_USERS 6
to
#define MAXIMUM_USERS 30
5) dpkg-buildpackage -b -us -uc -rfakeroot
6) sudo dpkg -i ../indicator-session-gtk2_0.3.7-0ubuntu1_i386.deb
indicator-session_0.3.7-0ubuntu1_i386.deb
When you don't want the update manager to propose to update the
indicator-session, edit the ./debian/changelog before making the package
(step 5), e.g.
indicator-session (0.3.7-0ubuntu2) oneiric-proposed; urgency=low
* Temp fix Invalid UTF-8

(Note that I've changed 0.3.7-0ubuntu1 to 0.3.7-0ubuntu2)
I've uploaded my i386 versions at:
