Let me see if I got you right:
You want to mark it as wontfix because older versions of lilo do
not provide -H => if one adds -H to the lilo invocations in
update-initramfs there might be problems during update from etch?

Maybe we could test the lilo version and add -H if version > some
version?
But in the end this is not really a good solution because maybe not
everyone wants to use -H.
Hmm. I think the only sensible solution would be to provide an option in
the lilo.conf

Sorry for the noise.
