This one works fine, great! (using SVN rev 14940 on i686).
However the instruction to build from the SVN could be improved.
I end up doing:
mkdir linux; cd linux
mkdir orig; cd orig; apt-get source linux-image-2.6.26-2-686; cd ..
svn co 'svn://svn.debian.org/kernel/dists/lenny/linux-2.6/'
cd linux-2.6
make -f debian/rules orig
make -f debian/rules debian/control-real
fakeroot debian/rules debian/build debian/stamps
fakeroot make -f debian/rules.gen binary-arch_i386_none_686
