This says that something ran an operation outside of the pseudo environme=
nt.  So=20
it fell back to looking up the uid from the host system.  (The alternativ=
e is=20
the item was installed -before- the /etc/passwd,/etc/group was written to=
 the=20
disk.  If that happens, pseudo can also fall back to the system environme=
nt.)
