When I looked early this morning, it said "TEMPLATE resume". This is
what eventually led me to realize it was yaird that was broken and not
the kernel.

I don't have yaird installed any more, but I remember this explicitly,
because there was a suggestion to use "TEMPLATE resume /dev/hda5", which
I tried (/dev/hda5 being my swap partition). It actually failed while
generating the initrd, saying something about an invalid option.

Reportbug had a grave bug (ack! how do I report it? ;) ) which appeared
to simply be misindented Python, plus an if statement without a colon
after it (causing Python to bork when trying to interpret it). I "fixed"
these, and this seemed to make reportbug work. Unfortunately, this also
caused it to send the bug report in a loop. Up until then, I had been
planning on sending the .patch ;)
