        Unfortunately, not very high. And as a package maintainer, I
 have little control over that;  release policy is set by the stable
 release managers, and I am not sure that building kernel images meets
 the bar for inclusion into stable.

        I suspect that kernel-package would be easy to backport, though,
 since it does not use  any perl or make facilities that were not
 present in Lenny. One might have to also backport the /sbin/installkernel
 shell script (((((((((again, fairly trivial)
