Migrate root=/dev/evms/[hs]d[a-z][0-9]* to UUIDs, since systems upgraded
from dapper to edgy may find themselves with such a root= option by
mistake (LP: #102148).

gcc-4.0 is no longer available. Switch back to gcc-3.4. Update build-deps
accordingly.

Change update-grub crashdump menu addition handling. We no longer have
kdump kernels, so users need to set crashdump=1 in menu.lst and rerun
update-grub to get this functionality.

  - use -fno-strict-aliasing
  - quiet boot and usplash support
  - disabled patch to set splash
  - store version of grub in /boot/grub/installed-version
  - in update-grub use this file to determine whether the quiet option
    is supported
  - transition root option to mounting by UUID
  - fix bashisms in update-grub
  - rename "single-user" mode to "recovery" mode
  - detect installation onto removable devices, and adjust root device
  - don't override UUID= or LABEL= from /etc/fstab, leave it to the
    initramfs to do the right thing
  - kdump option detection
  - drop "any-" from architecture names in debian/control
* update-grub: Remember to pass lockold arguments to write_kernel_entry
  (LP: #73906).
