Olivier, do you have maverick-backports enabled? 2.30.5-0ubuntu4+langfixes~maverick1 isn't in the main archive, but is in maverick-backports. It looks like the backport for gdm https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gdm/2.30.5-0ubuntu4+langfixes~maverick1 did fix issues that sound similar to the problem you're facing. However, when we prepare security updates we do not typically work from the backports packages, which is why the locale fixes were not kept. Someone will need to go and take the patch from bug 746053 and apply it to the backports versions of gdm.
