I use the following:

MAKEFLAGS="CC=gcc-3.4" \
make-kpkg --revision <my_revivion> \
        --append-to-version -<my_version> \
        --initrd \
        --rootcmd fakeroot kernel_image

I use something like 20050205 (the date) for <my_revision>
And -k8-1  for my version, you can increase the number as you create  
more versions  ;-)
