Okay, I didn't know whether plymouth is meant to still be in use at this
late stage.

The problem is the race condition in plymouth-shutdown.conf:

         /sbin/plymouthd --mode=shutdown
        /bin/plymouth show-splash

"plymouth show-splash" can be executed before the plymouthd daemon is up
and running. The subsequent message from casper then fails because the
splash is not shown:

        [main.c]                            on_display_message:not
displaying message Please remove installation media and close the tray
(if any) then press ENTER:  as no splash

To fix this just requires making sure that plymouthd is ready before the
call to show-splash. Patch attached.
