The question is in the title: "Why does HTML5 Boilerplate use Normalize.css v1.x and not latest v2.x?" - I'm sure there's a good reason for this, perhaps retaining IE6/7 compatibility?
Why does HTML5 Boilerplate use Normalize.css v1.x and not latest v2.x?

That's it exactly. The current version of HTML5 Boilerplate retains old IE support so it relies on Normalize 1.x. For direct evidence, see issue 1260. Issue 1050, which is the meta issue dealing with dropping legacy support, contains much discussion of this and other legacy compatibility issues. HTML5 Boilerplate v5.0 will be the catalyst for bumping normalize to 2.x
