Comment(by martin.langhoff):

 Ok. The xs-config package seems to contain a prefabricated /etc/passwd and
 /etc/shadow. With changes to xs-config I am at least getting a clean
 passwd and shadow pair that don't contain bogus accounts. They still
 overwrite the root acct. This should be easy to resolve, copying
 /etc/shadow from the livecd image.

 Still, passwd and shadow are statically precompiled inside xs-config.
 That's not what I was expecting.
