Well, I guess the phrase "all kernel versions known to update-initramfs"
is not very precise,e specially as it's not clear how to make kernel
versons known to it :)

Not explicitly, but the result is that the file is not there when I run the
command.
The workaround in place now enumerates all installed kernel versions
explicitly via upsate-initramfs -c -k xxxx.
