I should also add, for clarification to anyone possibly unfamiliar with Kerberos and, therefore, the impact of this bug, that the result of this bug is that the incorrectly-named ticket cache is not visible to applications searching for the ticket cache for the user, so the user cannot (without taking unusual measures) use the resulting ticket cache. The ticket cache is correctly owned by the user, but the ticket cache is not found because the filename is incorrect. As a result, the user would normally need to acquire new Kerberos tickets post-login, which would be unnecessary if this issue were corrected.
I will also add that using "xscreensaver" instead of light-locker is a workaround, but of course results in perhaps a less-consistent experience for the user.
