kernel-source-2.6.11 is probably a better place than
kernel-image-2.6.11-amd64-generic, as it seems likely the
bug is in the code, rather than the config. In either case,
could you pick one, assign both the bugs to it, and merge the bugs
(or alternatively close one). The BTS doesn't sport the
kernel's split packaging very well, but it seems better
to avoid duplicates. On the up side, as of 2.6.12, the
packages will have a single source, and this problem
will go away to some extent.

Sorry I can't offer much help on the bug itself for now,
hopefully someone else can.
