Comment:

 I think I have more information about this one...

 If BuddyPress is using the user_nicename column when formatting links and
 creating the "@username" link functionality, the solution to my particular
 problem may be an issue with the shibboleth plugin I've been using the
 create user accounts.

 It turns out that this plugin stores an unsanitized user_nicename, if
 BuddyPress uses the user_nicename field when creating links, and I can
 clean up the user_nicename column in my database this would become a non-
 issue.
