It's still in the archive, probably because it's still in testing, but it is not in the unstable Packages file. So someone needs to update the build directory to use the new kernel udebs, which are in unstable. Unfortunatly, linux-kernel-di only built the -small flavour kernel image last time. I have corrected this and the full set of udebs should go into the archive as soon as I can get ahold of a ftp master (may be a few days). If you would like them in the meantime, they're all at http://kitenet.net/~joey/tmp/d-i/kernel > 2.
