I've done this migration today.

At some point in the future calm/mksetupini will stop supporting 
setup.hints in the release area. (calm will still accept and migrate 
uploads containing a setup.hint, as per [1])

So, for the record, if you have an up-to-date calm installed, this 
migration can be done with 'calm-tool hint-migrate [--releasearea=...]'
