I agree that it's strange indeed, however I guess that both eureka and I have modded our devices to a degree where they hardly resemble stock Kindles anymore. In fact, I'm afraid of applying any update because I'm pretty sure that it'll break, and wondering about how to get it back into a "factory-fresh" state. I did make backups of all partitions, but only after already tampering around with some files (If anyone could provide me with as-pristine-as-possible dd dumps of mmcblk0p{1,2,3,4} for 5.0.1, I'd be more than grateful!).

That said, I thought that eureka was also experiencing the white home screen issue?
