Yes, it should.

Current status
--------------
* Sarge has a -2 ABI for ia64.
* Sid has the -3 ABI for ia64.  The ABI changed due to both the
  disabling of PREEMPT (for a security reason) and a security abi
  change that occured in kernel-tree-2.6.8-14 that was reverted in -15.

So, -14 should either have the -3 ABI or a -4 ABI.
