So the answer is "no, live-build doesn't support it". Also, that would
definitely not work for a downgrade (--distribution wheezy fails, so
user tries a --distribution squeeze build afterwards). I will definitely
not document or recommend this procedure, then, and stand by my
assertion that I see no reason the patch could not be accepted as-is.
