Because our system for building kernels sucks, it's not in any
package. We could fix this by using the 'kernel-patch' package system
used by other architectures, any volunteers? :-) See the
kernel-patch-2.2.14-powerpc package for an example of how it works.

I have the precious .config on one of my Alphas, or possibly also on a
disk that is currently sitting in a machine at lkg.dec.com, in which
case I'll grab it for you tomorrow.

In the case that the 2.2.14-2 revision of the kernel packages has
STILL not been installed into the archive (grumble), then you might
want to ask Christian Meder <meder@debian.org>, as he's the one that
built the 2.2.14-1 kernels.
