If this is the Master thread regarding "space requirement too big"
could you please raise the importance?

Reason: this problem may absolutely prohibit the upgrade to feisty.
In some scenarios resizing partitions may be a (risky) 
workaround to satisfy the overly conservative space requirement,
but if "/" holds a filesystem for which shrinking is not supported
by gparted (like xfs, reiser4) it may not be possible to grow "/boot".

If a quick fix is not likely, is there a workaround without
repartitioning?
