So when you say "built from source", what do you really mean?  I'd
think that, if you used stable's kernel-package to build a 2.4.21 or
2.4.22 kernel from either the kernel.org or Debian (testing/unstable)
sources, it should work fine and you wouldn't get strange
dependencies.  (A 2.6.0-test kernel would probably be a total loss,
though.)
