It doesn't as the message never really bothered me.

BTW it may be worth collaborating on a 'UML Tools' that runs inside
a UML Session.  One of the things it could do is the above replacement.

The other is sorting out the X side.  UML Builder does a lot more than
just symlink Xnest to X.  In particular, the control script that starts
a UML session figures out your $DISPLAY and adds it as a variable to
the kernel command line.  X is then pointed at a script that grabs it
out of /proc/cmdline and runs Xnest.  This means that you can set
the initlevel to 5 and things just work.

Similarly, there is another script that does the networking and sets
up the routes correctly inside the UML session.  (Again this involves
grovelling through the kernel command line).
