Hmm, can you elaborate on that? What precisely do they need there?

If it's just the kernel image itself then they shouldn't really use
/boot anyway I figure, but instead the kernel in
/usr/lib/modules/`uname -r`/vmlinux. It's the same thing really.

Generally I think it'd be a good idea to ensure that only the boot
loader and tools setting up the boot loader would access /boot.
