I built it today with the source package as it is, I just added amd64 to
the Architecture: line in debian/control. Except for some manual needed
intervention (for answering "make oldconfig" questions) it went fine, as
far as I can tell.

After installing the packet, a freshly debootstrapped etch booted up
fine, output attached.

I can provide more help if necessary. (I'm doing all this on a friends
more-or-less up-to-date x86_64 machine running testing. I'm not root but
he is very responsive when it comes to doing stuff as root for me.)

I'm wondering about the kernel version: Since the source packet as it is
now is build-depending on linux-source-2.6.18 which is not in sid
anymore, it will not build on sid right now, I guess? Do you expect the
kernel version upgrade to be a big issue? Which steps are needed?

Regards,
Martin
