Oh well.  How many times I talked with Max on IRC, sent patches,
created a git tree for initramfs to pull from..  His answer has
always been the same: no need.  So I gave up, creating an ugly
zzz-busybox which undoes the mess done in initramfs script.

Please note that once the d-i team prevented me from maintaining
busybox, this package remains unmaintained.  So maybe it is a
better idea to remove usage of busybox in initramfs (which this
series actually does).

Thank you Ben!

(And yes, I'm still subscribed to busybox package, for unknown
reason).
