My case was a little different but I think is part of this problem.
I acctually had 4 motd when logging in with ssh.
motd #1
motd #2
motd #1
motd #2
which lead me to the conclusion that there must be 2

Duplicate welcome
** Description changed:
When I ssh into my 10.04.2 servers I get two motd print outs. The first
one appears to be current-ish, but the second one is way out of date.
The first motd contains this:
- System information as of Fri May 20 01:36:13 EDT 2011
+ System information as of Fri

1. Create new VM from ubuntu-10.04.2-server-amd64.iso
2. log in. Notice motd is displayed twice
3. log out and back in again. Notice motd is displayed only once
4. apply updates. Log out and back in again. Notice motd is displayed
twice.
5. remove /etc/motd.tail and log out and back in
2. log in. Notice motd is displayed twice
This isn't true, there's some other one-time message displayed.
Running
sudo strace -o apt.str -s 4096 -f aptitude dist-upgrade
on a fresh VM shows that the issue is in the postinstall script of the
initscripts package.
sysvinit (2.87dsf-4ubuntu17) lucid; urgency=low
* debian/initscripts/etc/init.d/sendsigs: additional upstart jobs may be
/started/ on shutdown after this script has first been invoked; so don't
assume the list of known jobs is constant, instead requery initctl before
each killall5
Looks like the code in sysvinit-2.87dsf/debian/initscripts.postinst that
tries to preserve an existing motd by turning it into a motd.tail only
makes sense if /etc/motd isn't already symlink to a generated file.
