Actually, it seems I don't have to pin any of the live-* packages now. 
the ones in wheezy are the same as those in sid. And I guess that's what 
you were saying above. :)

I just tried a default ISO build and it failed in the same way. I did 
this (as root):

# lb --version
live-build, version 3.0~a46-1
...
# mkdir wheezy
# cd wheezy
# cp -R /usr/share/live/build/examples/auto .
# lb config
# mv ~/kernel.binary config/hooks
# lb build

kernel.binary is simply:

#!/bin/sh
mv binary/live/vmlinuz-* binary/live/vmlinuz || true
mv binary/live/initrd.img-* binary/live/initrd.img || true

When it finally produced an ISO, I got the same "startpar" error as I 
always had.

I tried another build with:

* live-boot_3.0~a27-1_all.deb
* live-boot-initramfs-tools_3.0~a27-1_all.deb
* live-config_3.0~a37-1_all.deb
* live-config-sysvinit_3.0~a37-1_all.deb

in packages.chroot.

And... it worked! I have no idea which one(s) of those updated packages 
made the difference, but at this point I don't care. I can now go ahead 
and make a wheezy version of my distribution. Woohoo! Let the bells ring 
out and the banners fly! :)

Hopefully this will be it. I'll come back in a while to update all 
concerned with the results.
