I'm glad I found this bug report. My xscreensaver has been doing the
same thing. I changed the group on /etc/shadow from 'root' to 'shadow'
and it resolved the issue.
I don't recall ever having touched the shadow file, as I never have a
need to fool with it. Dunno if some other process may have touched it.
I do recall xscreensaver working a long time ago; I just hadn't used it
often.
