only x86 and amd64 are supported. I am still working on ppc and no other
(sub)arch are under construction

make mrproper
make defconfig ARCH=um
make menuconfig ARCH=um
make-kpkg --arch=um kernel_image
that is all!
From 2.6.9 (I think) um is fully introducedd in the kernel-repos, so that
you can only choose what arch to build the kernel.
Let's say that it is working for the 80% also on ppc, or better ARCH=um
SUBARCH=powerpc
I hope I did not misunderstand your doubt :((
