updated initramfs-tools now kernel oops during boot sequence
Anybody else seeing this? It's Bug#499231 in the BTS. The
attachments (syslog and dpkg.log) are in the official bugreport. I
left them off here to save bandwidth.
Any help will be appreciated.

Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.92k
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system
PowerPC (G4 Macintosh) running sid.
Ran nightly dist-upgrade which updated initramfs-tools.
Now the system crashes with a kernel oops.
I restored the old initrd.img...bak and it now boots OK.
curiously, after gunzip-ing and un-cpio-ing the two initrd.img files,
the only difference is:
greybox:/tmp# diff -r initrd initrd.BAD/
diff -r initrd/conf/initramfs.conf initrd.BAD/conf/initramfs.conf
7,8d6
< # In particular, Debian installer may set MODULES in the file
< # /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/driver-policy.

/var/log/syslog.0 attached to original bug report (contains the
kernel Oops and surrounding stuff)
