I actually have build a first amd64 kernel images set[1], which is in fact based on debians kernel-source and kernel-patch-debian. The source pacakge actually creates 3 flavours: a generic x86_64 kernel for DI, k8 and k8-smp. At present state a kernel-patch-amd64 would only be needed if 2.6.7 takes ways too long to release, considering the lots of fixes in the BK snapshots. I will look more closely into this when I finished working on the D-I parts.
