Well that's just too simple.  But it works.  

Kubuntu's menu.lst entry is:

/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-22-generic root=UUID=77a7b120-9eae-44d5-8a6c-6cc655287563 
ro quiet splash

So I copied everything except "ro quiet splash" into Debian's menu.lst (for 
Kubuntu) and now it works.  That is, Debian's GRUB can now boot the most 
recent kernel for Kubuntu on the other partition.

Thank you Alex.  And thanks to the others who helped.
