This looks like it wasn't a regression, but some other compile/install 
issue. See

	http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=127274294422719&w=2

where he reports that his self-compiled 2.6.33 doesn't boot either. 

There's some confusion about .config, but it might well be an install 
problem too (in fact, that sounds more likely - the original bug-report 
seems to reboot before the kernel has really even booted - it apparently 
hasn't done the graphics mode switch by the early bootloader)
