No, that shouldn't break.  Even when you're installing your own
kernel, the kernel markefile is supposed to process the hooks in
/etc/kernel/postinst.d.
Sound good.  When are those hooks processed?

Happy hacking,
Actually I just checked with the person who I thought told me this and pulled the kernel source myself. I'm wrong on that front. The hooks should be processed however for Ubuntu, Debian, & Fedora. If a user installs a kernel on their own, they have to go and run these hooks themselves.

That shouldn't be something supported though from a distro perspective (rolling your own kernel w/o packaging).
