Thanks! But unfortunately this isn't just a GenericSetup testing issue. 
The same warnings show up on Zope startup and in CMF tests:
http://mail.zope.org/pipermail/cmf-tests/2007-December/007342.html

The only way to get rid of these warnings is a) adding a metadata.xml 
file with specified version to *each* profile or b) removing the 
warnings completely.

Since metadata.xml files are not required I vote for b).
