To quote the realease notes for PSK5, 

"section 2.2 Error Message When Booting

After you install PSK5, you will see an error message when you boot
the node, and anytime that you boot.  The error shown below is harless
to the operation of PSK5

Undefined Global "display_$uid" in "lib/awslib"
"

RTFRS!! :-) :-)

   (Release Notes)

<stern fatherly mode on>
I know, many of you don't get the hardcopy release notes with the
cartridge.  For PSKs though, you should probably at least read the
release notes that are on online, as you may be stomping out something
you consider a feature, and HPollo considers a bug, or visa versa.  In
General, DON'T INSTALL A "PATCH" UNLESS YOU NOW WHAT IT IS *SUPPOSED*
TO DO!  (who knows what undocumented "features" will crop up)
