Right, check out /usr/doc/libc6/FAQ.Debian.gz for the word from the
horse's mouth.

Also, people (rightfully) mentioned considering make-kpkg for building
your kernels.  You can find it in the Debian kernel-package package.
It makes building your kernel much easier, and (more importantly in my
view) leaves you with a Debian package containing the new kernel.
This makes it easy to switch back and forth between kernel
configurations (using different kernel packages) without worrying
about making a mistake.
