It has indeed been fixed in Feisty Fawn. Feisty Fawn now uses the
bootcd-mkinitramfs package instead of bootcd-mkinitrd; I think this is
what is primarily responsible for the fix.

On the same note, however, the default bootcd package in Feisty Fawn has
a typo (I think). Trying to run bootcdwrite from a fresh install yields
an error about an (un)expected bracket or something (sorry, I cannot get
the exact details at the moment; I stopped working with bootcd a few
weeks ago after finishing the project) in the /usr/share/bootcd/bootcd-
run.lib file. I was able to solve this problem by changing the line
which reads "function interactive()" to just "interactive()" (somewhere
around line 140). After doing this, the package worked almost without a
hitch.

I say almost because I needed to set BOOTCDMODPROBE=auto in
bootcdwrite.conf and install the discover package for hardware
autodetection (as in the location of the CD drive) to work correctly,
but this is not really a bug, per se.
