The grub configuration looks alright, and basically untouched from 
defaults.  But what you said about looking as if old modules were
being loaded got me thinking, so I recreated the initramfs image..

  update-initramfs -d -k 3.2.0-4-686-pae
  update-initramfs -c -k 3.2.0-4-686-pae

and now jfs is working.  So that means that the new kernel build 
isn't the problem as I had believed.

Not sure why the normal package upgrade process wasn't creating/updating 
the initramfs image properly, but it could certainly be grub-legacy
at fault, if it isn't due to something unique about this particular 
system's configuration (it's been dist-upgraded many times, starting
as etch or sarge).

This bug report can be closed.  If I find time to do some more 
investigation later and determine grub-legacy to be the actual culprit 
I'll file a bug report against that package.
