Well, if it allows people like me to just do 'apt-get source' and
'dpkg-buildpackage' without thinking about which kernel they run, it
does more good than harm, doesn't it :)

Maybe the really correct, and right way to fix that, though, is to patch
the configure script to check for the ABI used by $CC instead of 'uname
-m'.  That kind of fix could then also go upstream.

just my 2 cents.
