Patching /var/lib/dpkg/info/linux-image-2.6.15-26-k7.postinst in my case seems
to work, thanks. Should this bug be assigned against kernel-package instead?

The problem is that (a) the kernel's postinst uses debconf, which uses
stdin and stdout for communication and forbids other junk from appearing
there, and (b) the kernel's postinst calls update-initramfs, which
outputs status information to stdout which debconf thinks is a command
in its protocol
