Bug#337321: kernel-package: Fails to build ppc64 2.6.14 kernel

Hi,

        After talking to experts, I am told to convey this:
 a) You should be using --subarch powerpc64, which shall create vmlinux

I should have mentioned that I've used that option. It tried to build target zImage

 b) You should use mkvmlinuz to create the zImage.

Why?  make-kpkg seems to be good enough, it just seems to use the wrong
target for G5 builds.  The kernel package generated with
target=zImage.vmode works fine for me.

 c) Since mkvmlinuz does not yet support ppc64 yet, I am reassigning
    this bug  there.
