Of course you could recompile the kernel package.
However:

http://kernel-handbook.alioth.debian.org/ch-common-tasks.html#s-common-official

now is wrong. These won't work anymore:

fakeroot make -f debian/rules.gen setup-i386-none-686
fakeroot make -f debian/rules.gen binary-arch-i386-none-686

and have become:

fakeroot make -f debian/rules.gen setup_i386_none_686
fakeroot make -f debian/rules.gen binary-arch_i386_none_686

and this patch:

debian/dfsg/drivers-net-tg3-fix-simple.patch

failed on my system. So since I don't have a tg3 I commented out the 
patch in:

linux-2.6.23/debian/patches/series/1


Then while you're at it you could turn on K7 again before compiling.
