Well if you aren't fussed about fine-tuning the configuration, it's a
six-liner:

obtain and unpack kernel sources
/usr/src$ wget ...
/usr/src$ tar -xzf ...
/usr/src$ cd ...

copy in existing config
/usr/src/...$ cp /boot/config-`uname -r` .config

build
/usr/src/...$ fakeroot make-kpkg --append_to_version <initials> kernel-image

install
/usr/src# dpkg -i kernel-image*<initials>*deb
