plymouth uses pango which uses glib. If plymouth is started in an
initramfs, chances are there's no /etc/passwd (or any nss modules, for that
matter), resulting in this warning.

Ah, I see, makes sense. I didn't know that any distribution was
shipping the label plugin inside the initramfs (that code was
initially created as a plugin so that it wouldn't get loaded at
initramfs time).
Thanks for the insightful reply.
