I have test packages built with the last svn on 

http://debian.quaqua.net/quaqua pkg-xen/

Anyway before uploading we need to fix the xenstore library positioning issue!
Then I think we're pretty much done!

is it really necessary? I noticed that mine doesn't too! (I don't know why, I
didn't use upstream's makefile to build it, but just manually did a
./mkbuildtree and applied patches/linux-2.6.12/ patches) And since I compile
with --arch=xen I already get package names called
linux-xen0-2.6.12.6tst000_000_i386.deb (the tst000 is mine)...

Anyway if we want we can even direct people to the patch and tell them to apply
it with zcat patch | patch -p1, and be done! ;)
