The Debian packaging system needs some fixes to build 2.6.33.  See
http://fsfla.org/svn/fsfla/software/linux-libre/lemote/gnewsense/branches/2.6.33/kpkg-2.6.33.patch

I've used this to build the latest 2.6.33 gNewSense/mipsel kernels, but
beware: it would prevent 2.6.32 and earlier from building.  The second
hunk needs some tweaking to support both; just naming both files should
suffice if you don't mind the stderr noise that would ensue.
