I downloaded pkg sources for linux-2.6.28-11.42 and looked around rules, control and other debian files. A bit overwhelming, I think my first package should be something little and with no possible side-effects... And kernel is not any of that. Sorry. With more time in my hands, maybe I could try.
I can upload somewhere the binary build and you can trust me I have not applied vile patches... Or I can tell you what I've done (nothing weird, really simple). It is easy: grab a vanilla 2.6.29 (last at post time is 2.6.29.4 [1]), apply the corresponding rt patch (2.6.29.4-rt16 [2]), copy the configuration from the last 2.6.28 ubuntu kernel over the new one, enable full rt-preemt and set to 1000Hz the config and make-kpkg. I also used the PPA from Michael Marley to get updated nvidia drivers [3]. You can look for outdated instructions on build an rt kernel for ubuntu here [4] to get inspiration over the config step.

I can test and run anything you want in my computer, but I can not try packaging a kernel right now. PD: At this ancient bug they are doing similar things.
