Actually, I think this bug points out another flaw which is that
multiple root password accounts are created. One account is just fine.
Is there some Debian specific reason 3 accounts are created? Upstream
creates two to work around the weird resolution order caused by having
the anonymous user present. But since we don't create the anonymous
user, % actually will match all hosts (including localhost)
