It turns out that I had overlooked this solution, and I apologize for
this.  Unstable does have a 2.4.26 kernel [1] which does _not_ depend on
a newer libc.  So this kernel can indeed be installed before switching
to `unstable' and installing a newer libc.

So this bug can probably be closed now.  However, documenting this issue
would be worthwhile.  Maybe the kernel image package descriptions could
be updated to mention this?

Thanks,
Ludovic.
