This looks really broken. How did you boot this system exactly? I. e. please give the output of /proc/cmdline. Did you maybe include "splash" into the argument of init=? This isn't an argument for "init", but a kernel command line part which is read by plymouth.

Nevermind, this is normal. However, what is the actual *problem* that this causes for you?

Note that neither upstart nor systemd's /sbin/init actually evaluate this (and aren't supposed to).
