different from that used upstream, that i386 support has not been added
to it.
As a result, stretch:i386 is still vulnerable when running the default
(4.9-based) kernel.

The general way to communicate this is by wrapping the build in

I think what you're proposing is to announce this as a one-off, and not

Sorry, I see this was supposed to be fixed in 6.0.2 (and cdimage-search
confirms that). I've been misled by http://bugs.debian.org/678236#37
where someone tested 6.0.1
in 2.6.32-40 (currently in stable-proposed-updates). I can
probably make an upload this weekend, but cannot promise that a further
upload will not be needed. We need some testing of the isci driver
(added in 2.6.32-40) and more generally regression testing.

what does this mean
this is a bug in the configuration of the CD/DVD creation:
the amd64 flavour is on DVD 1 but the 686-bigmem flavour is on DVD 2.
The latter definitely should be on DVD 1 (and CD 1 or 2, rather than CD
