Yes, I miss support for that too.
I have already filed a bug against kernel-package, but I'm not sure if
Manoj is working on it (or if he has already included hooks for
that---if that's the case, I would love to know about the
functionality).
Anyway, here is a quick'n'dirty script that I've built for cross
compiling kernels and generating uimages. Please notice that you will
need to install uboot-mkimage for the script to work.
If you make some improvements, please let me know and share the code.
Thanks, Rogério Brito.
