Anybody have recommendations for a
low-cost security camera that's actually
good in low light?

Not really. All of the low-cost cameras
I've seen were pretty poor in low light.

Are the units integrating IR LEDs any good?

It depends on what you want to accomplish.
Most of the inexpensive cameras with IR
arrays have such weak illumination that
you can't tell who is there or what they are
doing beyond a few feet.
