are you referring to an upstream kernel version or a debian package?
currently the only version available in lenny/sid is 2.6.26, so i don't
have the option of using a different kernel aiui.
could you send me your kernel config, so i can compare to see if there's
something obvious changed between versions? i've tried the same with
the two versions i have installed but the delta is large enough that
it's hard to draw conclusions (esp since many of the options/drivers
have been renamed during this period).

i have two kernels installed on the system, both from stock debian packages:
2.6.18-1-ps3pf (from the keshi.org installer) and 2.6.26-1-powerpc64 (lenny/sid)
