This is kind of handy for the LTS backport work.

This needs some thought as it is only sensible for the backports kernels.
If we apply this generally we will rename the linux-image- packages for
the arm and ec2 branches which was a big issue for the installer etc when
we introduced those initially.  To fix it there we moved to a different
ABI number to introduce the version separation.

I also think this also introduces an issue that we have
/lib/modules/2.6.34-1-generic owned by linux-imaverick-image-* and also
in linux-image-* on upgrade.

In this context I think the only issue is the collision of versions in
the archive.  For other packages the common case is to use a version
suffix on the older release.  If I have understood things correctly
just adding a ~lucid1 suffix would be sufficient to differentiate them
to the archive and allow upgrades to succeed as the package would be the
same name and an updgradable version number.

Thoughts?

Everything was so simple and elegant until you pointed that out.

Leann - consider this NAK'd. Andy has a good point, and I can't really 
get the Lucid installer to change its ways.

Seems like that ought to fix the upgrade problem. Lemme take another 
pass at it.
