Spoke too soon. After installing both Chris's fixed hal and the libblkid1 update above, my AMD64 system failed to boot, pausing about 1/5 of the way through. If I hit Alt-Ctl-Del, I could get the boot to resume but with my / mounted read-only. I suspect something is wrong with the libblkid1 that is causing the problem.

Anyone else seeing this?
