We should display an error message when account information can't be retrieved. Currently, the lock dialog just fails to appear...
*** Bug 527443 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
The screen lock is now implemented directly in gnome-shell, not in gnome-screensaver (as it was with older version of GNOME 3 and GNOME 2.x). If the reported problems persists in recent versions of GNOME, please file a new bug against gnome-shell with the "lock-screen" component selected. If your installation is an older version of GNOME that cannot be upgraded (such as an enterprise version), please use the appropriate support mechanism from your vendor, or your distribution instead.
