There's no "version" file in the Debian kernel package, but there's one
in the fso-kernel-installer package by Sebastian Reichel [1], which I
haven't tested with vfat partitions.

This was the bug Michele Renda reported [2].

Exactly, this was the only possible solution at that time.

No, there are no pre-/post- scripts in the Debian kernel package yet,
because there's nothing to do at installation time ATM, just unpack the
package and that's all.
Probably, since the link cannot be found, dpkg doesn't know how to
manage that situation. My only advice is to try to purge the old kernel
and then install the new one *through* apt-get.
FWIW, I just tested a new installation [3], this time on a vfat /boot
and everything was OK:
