I observed this behavior (no /etc/passwd generation) on another
machine when performing a fresh install on two users' machines
yesterday. The machine that worked properly received a single-user
install, while the one that failed was an install for "All Users."

If anyone has a virgin machine at their disposal, it may be worth a
quick test to ensure that something isn't broken.
