After some Hukilau 2011-derived experimenting, the least objectionable substitution scheme (IMO) is, in recipes which call for light or gold rum [u]AND[/u] LH151, use El Dorado (I'm using ED12, but as soon as I get a chance I want to see if I can get away with ED8) in place of lightest "regular" rum, and Bacardi 151 in place of the LH151. If the recipe calls for simple syrup I also will use varying proportions of demerara sugar syrup.

It's not e-x-a-c-t-l-y the same, but it's very, very close.
