Hmm.  I disagree that it was "repaired". Instead it was at some point 
changed to favor initramfs-tools over yaird - while still supporting 
both.

If, as Max wrote, debian-installer was changed shortly after some beta 
for Etch, it seems odd to me that you experience this issue in a RC for 
Lenny:  Etch was released some years before Lenny.
