due to some complains about using values for new kernel entries from sysconfig
I change behavior in perl-Bootloader to use value from menu.lst and only when
old entry is not found use as backup sysconfig value.
I also merge some fixes from SLES.
Are there volunteers to test new package? ( mainly test updating kernel
packages, try if manual changes to menu.lst preserve kernel update ). I don't
want break factory in such sensitive part.

New package can be found at ( my home repo - package perl-Bootloader))

http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/jreidinger/openSUSE_Factory/
(factory)

http://fm.no-ip.com/Tmp/SUSE/Factory/ contains 4 files from my Factory test.
I did zypper ref; zypper al kernel-desktop; zypper dup; zypper in
perl-Bootloader-0.5.18-4.1; zypper rl kernel-desktop; downloaded
kernel-desktop-3.0.0-39.1 from Tumbleweed (offers new kernels far more often
than Factory); zypper in kernel-desktop-3.0.0-39.1.

I just did this on a 11.4 system, and don't recognize any material difference in results.
