Workaround:

   Alt-F6 to switch to a text terminal
   login there
   sudo pkill -9 gnome-screensav
   F7 to switch back to GUI

The screen is unlocked.



Note, even

   pkill -9 gnome-screensav

should be enough I think (wihtou sudo), because I saw gnome-screensav is
run from the same non-root user.  Maybe even

   pkill gnome-screensav

But I the tested variant is `sudo pkill -9 gnome-screensav`, I haven't
tried the simplified variant.
