The kernel-source packages for 2.4 << 2.4.25 and for 2.6 << 2.6.7 ought to
be removed from the archive altogether.  (For the moment, 2.4.25/6 and
2.6.7 still apply to sarge, though this will be its own source of
space-saving once it's decided which of each kernel will be used for
sarge.)  Would you be willing to follow up on this by coordinating with
the maintainers and filing any needed removal requests against
ftp.debian.org?
