Nice job tracing this. It's an error that crops up once in a while (in most cases because a comma _inside_ one (translated) option in the option list is not escaped and causes a count difference). The proposed fix could well be OK, but maybe the code can be fixed a bit earlier so the trailing comma is avoided in the first place? It's in general better to create the option list correctly than to clean it up afterwards. 'ask_debconf()' sounds like a rather general function that should be fed correct input rather than have this overhead.
