Comment (by RuddO):

 Just for completeness, this is the behavior I'd expect.

 If, upon install.php, WP is going to insert an admin user with an ID of 1,
 it should use the same fixed ID for all tables which have user_ID as a
 foreign key.

 ALTERNATIVELY, it could also insert the admin user whie letting the
 database generate the ID key via autoincrement, and then retrieving and
 using the autoincremented ID *everywhere* else.

 Both courses of action would also let me DELETE FROM instead of TRUNCATE.

 But the currently implemented "middle ground" behavior is clearly wrong.
