Unfortunately those recipients originally seem to have escaped my eye

Ian, I am unable to find any of those links that I had read back then 
when I wrote the "not 'cpio ..." part in my answer to the list referred 
to above.

I now have only been able to come up with 
http://xenbits.xen.org/docs/unstable/misc/amd-ucode-container.txt, which 
is dated _after_ my referred mail (both the original and the amended 
version) and clearly also states the "-H newc" option. This document BTW 
contains a pretty good recipe for making this happen and also seems to 
be in line with what I had suggested earlier. So in a nutshell, 
xenproject seems to have things correct.

Appologies for not being able to be more helpful.
