I confirm that the workaround proposed at #14 works (thanks!). Lubuntu 14.04.1 64 bit.
No side effects yet, but it makes the boot a lot nicer, the plymouth loading screen with the Lubuntu logo now shows through the whole boot time. Before the workaround there was a black screen for 15+ seconds, then the error showed, and then the loading screen, which was there for about 3 seconds. Now the loading screen is there the whole time. If you look at it this way, it's a quite important graphical glitch.
(if anyone's wondering at the loading times, Wubi here)
