Bug#493389: update-grub: uses wrong ordering algorithm (sorts 1.2.3-foo before 1.2.3.1-foo)

Package: grub
Version: 0.97-44
Severity: important
update-grub is giving me this ordering, here:
Found kernel: /vmlinuz-2.6.25.14-t43
Found kernel: /vmlinuz-2.6.25.14.1-t43
Found kernel: /vmlinuz-2.6.25.13-t43
Found kernel: /vmlinuz-2.6.25.12-t43
which is broken. The second entry should have been sorted at a higher
priority than the first entry.
This causes the wrong kernel (i.e. not the newest one) to be the default
image.
