hey Joey,
  We're wondering if its safe to prepare kernel images for
security.debian.org with an ABI change.  We have at least one set of
patches for a security vulnerability that will affect all 2.6 archs.
Would that break d-i?  Seems to me that it shouldn't, since the current
ABI will still be in sarge, but you'd know best..  Doing so would of
course make the new ABI packages candidates for 3.1r1, and would
therefore require a d-i spin.  Is that feasible?
