That brings me to my next question: why are the kernel naming
conventions inconsistent? uname -r says I am currently running
2.6.8-em64t-p4-smp but no corresponding version of kernel 2.6.18 is
available from Arizona's sid repository. They do have a version for
amd64, which is what I would have thought I needed, but now I'm
confused. What kernel flavor am I looking for, assuming that my CPU is
an old Athlon 64?

You may have missed the naming convention change from kernel-image-***
to linux-image-***. I think this was done to allow futuer non-linux
(e.g. HURD) kernels.
