Heh.  It was a minor annoyance: the generated OS config would have an
unnecessary “root” user account (unnecessary because it’s included by
default), which ‘guix system init’ would warn about and ignore, and the
end result is unchanged.

IWBN to augment the installation tests with a check for that, but that’s
tricky.  But like Tobias wrote, contributions are welcome.  :-)

Thanks,
Ludo’.
