I do agree the message is misleading, It should say "running world".

It does not look anymore at /bin/sh because of the incremental build problem, it
looks at uname which is always updated for uname -U during incremental builds.
(and falls back on /bin/sh if uname does not exist).

so it says the userland of the running system is not inlined with the version
the packages where built for.
