If so, make sure that in /etc/nsswitch.conf on the passwd line that "files" comes before "ldap" (or SSSD, if you're using that). If something other than "files" is listed first, it could be returning an error that's preventing it from trying /etc/passwd. If "files" is listed first, then Matt is right, and it's either a permissions problem on /etc/passwd or /etc/nsswitch.conf, or a bug in glibc. The fact that it only happens after hibernate is what leads me to think it might be related to ldap lookups.
