Oneiric is available, but only for testing if the package build correctly. No need to test if it's working inside the chroot, it's too early in the cycle :) If it's working on Natty, it should be good on Oneiric.

If hardinfo project is registered in Launchpad, you can add "Also affects project". If not, it's enough to just copy/paste the url of the bug report upstream. Launchpad support links with other bugtracker (like Bugzilla) to track status on other bugtracker, but not all bugtrackers are supported.
