The system boots fine if you select the new (-3-) kernel manually, so I would think that it would also boot fine if you edit grub's config file. There seems to be a bug in some compare_version() function that is used by in the update-grub process to determine which kernel is newer than the other. It should special-case -trunk- as well, as it does for rc, pre, test IIRC. If someone could give me a pointer where I can find the source code for that functionality, i'll try to come up with a patch and file a bug against the applicable package. -- .''`.
