>"I am following instructions from http://packages.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/223/builds/19371/testcases

I installed the latest upstream kernel: all packages pertaining to my architecture from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.5-rc7-quantal/"

Thank you for following those instructions, installing the latest upstream kernel, and testing it.

<"I am not reporting a bug about the latest kernel that comes with Precise when you do an `# apt-get dist-upgrade'."

We all knew already that you are not reporting a bug about the kernel that comes with Precise when you do an `# apt-get dist-upgrade'. :D The issue remains, you may not apport-cli unless you have booted with a kernel that comes with Precise, not a proposed kernel, mainline kernel, or a PPA kernel.

>"I tested the latest upstream kernel with this specific hardware (because it needed to be tested per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Kernel)."

Thank you for testing the latest upstream kernel with that specific hardware.

At this time, it is appropriate to boot into a kernel that comes with Precise and do the apport-cli. It is not appropriate to boot into a proposed kernel, mainline kernel, or a PPA kernel and do the apport-cli.
