1) confirmed... seem like ntpdate needs to be run in advanced.
2) seem to work for me.
3) no such problems for me.
it is normal that a user's home dir won't be remove. reason is kind of simple.
What if there is important data in it ?
if a user is added it has one primary group. this will be added to the /etc/passwd. if it should become a member of another group. it will be added into /etc/group//
if you add users will it hang everytime ? cause it didn't happen here.

About boot-admin,there are Gentoo,SUSE installed in my hard disk also.Gentoo's boot-admin works,but Arch's not works.

3) well after some help of a friend, we found out it is related to chfn. this means that you can set fullname phone place.. etc...
chfn asks for a password, but it shouldn't as superuser. this will need some research.

ok found a workaround for problem 3 :)

cp /etc/pam.d/chpassword /etc/pam.d/chfn
