It really should be *not* - they are simply descriptive values, ie. you
really do want to specify "live" for LH_BINARY_DEBIAN_INSTALLER.

Alas, this is a known issue which we did not fix in time for lenny.
Please see #498143 for the technical details and a proposed patch by
myself; it could do with additional testing.

On the archives of this list I believe there is a binary hook to apply
this patch programatically. My current target is to fix this issue for
lenny r1.
