Title:
  update-grub2 needs to *not* ignore -ec2 kernels

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: grub2

  In bug #671097, it was determined that update-grub2 needs to ignore
  -ec2 kernels. Now that Xen can boot from a grub2 configuration with
  pygrub, this behaviour is actively harmful. As it is, our Ubuntu 10.04
  VMs can not manage their own kernels under Debian 6 Xen. Can #671097
  be reverted, or an override flag added to the blacklisting mechanism
  in /etc/grub.d/10_linux?
