this is purely a cosmetic error, if it bothers you (like it does me),
this is the fix for it:

http://sources.progress-linux.org/gitweb/?p=packages/initramfs-tools.git;a=commitdiff;h=5e47185c1077c56bb91951fb4e8a6141673c89dc

but it's only really worth it if you're shipping your own
initramfs-tools package anyway.
