FYI for anyone else who comes across this bug report, I was able to get
around the issue in regular Ubuntu 14.04 by overwriting
/usr/share/icons/gnome/256x256/status/avatar-default.png with my desired
.png (the greeter even resized it properly).  You have to run 'gtk-
update-icon-cache /usr/share/icons/gnome' as root after the change and
make sure the new /usr/share/icons/gnome/icon-theme.cache file has 644
permissions.

Do this at your own risk.  I don't know where else that avatar-
default.png file is used.
