Thanks to your blog for clear explanations about possible versions conflicts that can happen now or later, depending of the multiple upgrading scenari.
What i mean is, trying to find the easiest way to avoid conflict, to detect non compatible version (by scanning) before accepting the upgrade. To do that you need to list all the possible conflicts with a module or an other (that im calling "events" errors). Indeed its an shorterm embedded workaround, independant of the main problem repoted here.
But for future as a bootloader is a vital piece of a system, it might be as independant as possible of other part of the system, because of the actual multiple possible version conflicts. And a dedicated boot partition seems ideal, but its an other story.

Additional note:
 i've loaded Lubuntu Quantal i386, made the available upgrades proposed, then installed 3.6-rc6 kernel with dpkg: as a result i got the actual issue reported.
Then i've booted into ubuntu quantal i386, also made the upgrades, and finally installed 3.6-rc6 kernel via dpkg: and i did not get the script error issue. Strange.
