This may not directly apply to what is being discussed, but FWIW, I
noticed that the 2.6.14 kernel source supports
make ARCH=um deb-pkg
which seems to work nicely for building a working deb package.  I
recently did the following: downloaded the 2.6.14.3 kernel source;
applied the 2.6.14-bs2 patch; applied Matt's (2.4.26-3um)
user-mode-linux patches for uml-switch, uml-net, and x-terminal-emulator
(from the user-mode-linux source); make ARCH=um menuconfig; then make
ARCH=um deb-pkg.  So far it seems to run well.
