I just looked at the implementation - in the preinst
md5sum(/etc/sudoers) is compared to a known value:
md5sum(/etc/sudoers[squeeze]). It should be easy to extend this to a
list of known old md5sums to cover the unmodified lenny /etc/sudoers as
well.

c310ef4892a00cca8134f6e4fcd64b6d  sudoers.lenny
c5dab0f2771411ed7e67d6dab60a311f  sudoers.squeeze
