CentralAuth correctly autocreated and attached some local accounts (see 2012-08-05 20:44 entries on URL) but now I can't login to some of them, specifically map-bms.wiki, mwl.wiki, wo.wikt. Local password reset fails, apparently with 'noemail' error, but Special:MergeAccount is happy. For folklore: «Bii baatujàll baaxul. Jéemaatal.» «Ora ana alamat imel sing kecathet kanggo panganggo "Nemo bis".» Maybe incomplete attachment (??) due to race conditions? Compare bug 29234 where local account wasn't attached at all.

Some staff with db access has to fill in the email address for you, maybe ask someone at IRC. Sadly, I don't think this bug will be solved ever :(
Probably related: bug 39996, bug 35792 and bug 39997.
Hopefully, this was fixed for good, at bug 39996.
