Thanks for sharing your findings.
i've always found that code to manage the isolinux binary was weak.

I'll work on improving this for an upcoming version.
I've the code in project-builder.org to manage files per distro in a configuration file, so I'll use that to solve the issue.
Cf: http://trac.mondorescue.org/ticket/834

Meanwhile you're solution is of course fine.
Bruno.
