If fix was released 2009-10-02, how come that I did partial upgrade on
my live USB yesterday, 2009-10-09, and my manually changed file
/etc/init/tty2.conf was restored to the previous state?

After clan install the file contents were:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# tty2 - getty
#
# This service maintains a getty on tty2 from the point the system is
# started until it is shut down again.

start on runlevel [23]
stop on runlevel [!23]

respawn
exec /bin/login -f ubuntu </dev/tty2.conf > /dev/tty2.conf 2>&1
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


I manually changed the last line so that there was:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# tty2 - getty
#
# This service maintains a getty on tty2 from the point the system is
# started until it is shut down again.

start on runlevel [23]
stop on runlevel [!23]

respawn
exec /sbin/getty 115200 tty2
#exec /bin/login -f ubuntu </dev/tty2.conf > /dev/tty2.conf 2>&1
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Then I ran partial upgrade, and finally the file was
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# tty2 - getty
#
# This service maintains a getty on tty2 from the point the system is
# started until it is shut down again.

start on runlevel [23]
stop on runlevel [!23]

respawn
exec /bin/login -f ubuntu </dev/tty2.conf > /dev/tty2.conf 2>&1

#exec /bin/login -f ubuntu </dev/tty2.conf > /dev/tty2.conf 2>&1
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
