Same here, subscribing

For me it seems to delete the user picture when the user logs back in also, including all image styles.

There is a working patch here http://drupal.org/files/issues/935592_user_profile_picture_4.patch that you apply to drupal/modules/user/user.module and hey presto! no more vanishing pictures.

If like me you find applying patches mind bogglingly confusing use this tutorial http://drupal.org/node/32875 and when you run the patch skip the first bit (the test) and then type in user.module as for the second part of the patch. This should do the trick.

Is this patch plan to be ported to the core ?

Yes, there is an issue for core to sort this out at #935592: User picture is deleted after calls to user_save(). I think it would be possible to sort this out for profile2 by making sure the picture was loaded in $edit when user_save() is called, but hopefully the fix will get added to core soon enough. But I'll leave this active in case the maintainers do want to do a temporary hacky fix here first.
