Just performed a fresh install of 10.04 (which I believe ran an update
during the installation process) and was still confronted with the
poorly-written message at the top of this page. Is the "fix released"
just for future releases, or was it supposed to be applied during the
installation process?

Just for clarification, the definition here clarifies where the confusion came 
from for me:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passphrase#Compared_to_passwords

"Passphrases differ from passwords. A password  is usually short — six to ten 
characters..."
"Passphrases are generally stronger, ... 20 to 30 characters or more is typical"

The second dialog says to "enter your passphrase".  Simply changing that
to read "enter your password" would have prevented this entire bug
report for me.
