We found a solution to this that worked on a test machine. I'll post it here in case anybody finds this ticket while searching on a similar problem in the future.
We copied the entire local home directory for the user having the problem to the test machine. After doing that we could re-create the problem on the test box. We could log in as him and get the directory mappings screwed up as described above. We proceeded to delete the following files/dirs from his home directory:
.gconf
.gconfd
.gnome
.gnome2
.gnome2_private
.gnome-desktop
.gtkrc-1.2-gnome2
.nautilus
.metacity
After that we logged out and back in again and the home directories mapped correctly. So apparently somehow his gnome config was screwed up in a way that made his home dir mapping incorrect. I have no idea how that happened, but deleting these objects and letting gnome re-create them on the next login fixed it.

FEGETROUND(3) BSD Library Functions Manual FEGETROUND(3)
NAME
fegetround, fesetround -- functions providing access to the floating-point rounding mode.
SYNOPSIS
#include <fenv.h>
#pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON
int
fegetround(void);
int
fesetround(int round);
DESCRIPTION
These functions provide control of floating-point rounding direction modes.
The fegetround() function gets the current rounding direction. It returns the value of the rounding direction macro representing the current
rounding direction, or a negative value if either there is no corresponding macro or if the rounding direction is not determinable.
The fesetround() function sets the rounding direction to be that specified by the argument round. If the argument is not equal to the value
of one of the rounding direction macros, the rounding direction is not changed. It returns zero if and only if the requested rounding direc-
tion was established.
