This appears to be a gnome-shell crash with superficially similar symptoms. Please report it as a separate gnome-shell bug instead of replying to an unrelated gdm3 bug: if you have successfully logged in, then you are no longer interacting with gdm-simple-greeter. The gnome-shell maintainer will probably ask for information from your ~/.xsession-errors, so you can save some time by attaching that. >From the name of the crashing thread, this is probably related to this gnome-shell change: gnome-shell (3.4.2-7+deb7u1) stable; urgency=low ... + Add a watchdog thread to suicide the process after 10 seconds if the GC locks up.
