Perhaps, but I'm fairly certain that the boot blocks are not the
problem.  The 5-day old 3.1-stable kernel boots just fine with the
current boot blocks as well as with the previous boot blocks that were
there.  I suspect the problem is elsewhere, but I don't know where.

Unfortunately I've been real busy with trying to find a fix or
workaround to my "Receive 1" panic on my amanda backup server and
haven't tried rebooting the system in question lately (in the last 4
hours).
