BTW I've checked out the whole kernel SVN repo, but I can't find the
vserver-* configs.. where are they exactly?

Yes.
I've talked a bit with Junichi, and we came to the conclusion that
naming the flavour "-multimedia" (hence -multimedia-686, -multimedia-k7)
would probably be the best choice as:
1) it should be more clear the connection between this set of flavours
and the debian-multimedia team
2) the realtime patch might not be the only patch we are going to
apply, for example we might want bootsplash and software suspend 2;
then the -rt label would be misleading
