Comment:

 Thanks for the report sgissinger. I'm unable to reproduce the problem
 you're experiencing. Note that the `login_redirect` filter is applied each
 time you view the login screen (even if you don't attempt to log in) in
 order to control where the redirect goes after the user does log in.

 By default, the `$user` parameter in this situation is an empty `WP_Error`
 object. However, when you successfully log in the `$user` parameter will
 be a `WP_User` object.

 Can you confirm that the bug still exists with the default theme activated
 and all other plugins deactivated? Also note that your callback function
 hooked into `login_redirect` shouldn't actually perform the redirect, it
 should just return the redirect location (but I think you're doing that
 anyway).
