I see 2.6.8-16sarge1 there, but not 2.4.27.
Are you wanting us to builds against 2.6.8-16sarge1?  And if so, should
we be building in a pristine sarge environment and targeting
stable-security (vs. unstable)?

The rest of this message leads me to believe this is only a call for
2.4.27/unstable builds.
