This warning seems to be caused by the label control for plymouth, which uses pango to render text.
We should be able to suppress the warning simply by generating a bogus /etc/passwd file in the initrd with an entry for root, such that glib finds a valid user entry for uid 0.

Patch to do this attached; it's currently building in my PPA (https:/ /launchpad. net/~broder/ +archive/ ubuntu- tests), and should be tested to confirm it eliminates the problem.
