The acid test is to check 'apt-cache policy live-boot' and also for each other package and see if apt really obeys the pinning (also you should see the correct version installed, which is noted in the resulting .packages file generated by live-build).
Ah, never mind. Rechecked apt_preferences(5) on squeeze which says:
· The specific form assigns a priority (a "Pin-Priority") to one or
more specified packages and specified version or version range. For
example, the following record assigns a high priority to all
versions of the perl package whose version number begins with
"5.8". Multiple packages can be separated by spaces.
Package: perl
Pin: version 5.8*
Pin-Priority: 1001
So multiple packages in the same line should work.
