Have a look at the 'Snapshots' section of
http://wiki.debian.org/DebianKernel

I'm using the amd64 kernel from
http://kernel-archive.buildserver.net/debian-kernel/pool/main/l/linux-2.
6.18-xen-3.3/ but apparently the 2.6.26 xen kernels under
http://kernel-archive.buildserver.net/debian-kernel/pool/main/l/linux-2.
6/ work also.
