Ok, I messed around with running this code quite a bit. As far as I can tell the metadata just doesn't get populated when using boto 2.5.2. Even after launching and re-running cloud-init, or re-running cloud-init after wipeing the instance data did not ever seem to store the metadata.
This is while running the branch for boto-metadata-fixings + the extra debug patches.
When I was using 2.5.2 it seemed like whenever i print the value of one of these variables that makes it populate the data. Perhaps there is something with casting to string or etc that causes the population. Otherwise it seems to be blank.

Then I upgraded to boto 2.6.0. When using that I had this traceback: pastie. org/5344298
