Thanks, good to know.

Am I correct in guessing that 3.2.y from wheezy, sid, or
squeeze-backports is not affected?  The only packages from outside
squeeze that should be needed for this test except for the kernel
image itself are linux-base and initramfs-tools.

If that's works, please do test the patch[1] Ben suggested, like so:

 0. preparation
	apt-get build-dep linux-2.6; # as root
	apt-get install devscripts; # as root
	apt-get source linux-2.6/squeeze
	cd linux-2.6-<version>

 1. disable debuginfo
	sed -i -e '/686_image-dbg/, /^$/ d' \
		debian/config/i386/openvz/defines

 2. patch and build
	# optionally with -j <num> for parallel build
	bash debian/bin/test-patches -f 686 -s openvz /path/to/patch;

 3. install and test
	dpkg -i ../<name of package>; # as root
	reboot

Sincerely,
Jonathan
