Well, the first thing I would do is optimize the test-cycle.   I would create
partition the disk so you can install a stable debian system (I think you said
you were stable with 2.6.26?), a fixed image of your test system (using 2.6.28
or 2.6.29-rc1), using the smallest posible system you can that still reproduces
the problem.    Then copy, using dd, the fixed image of the test system to the
scratch partition, and then rig up grub (where the menu.conf file is on your
stable system) so you can boot the scratch partition.   Hopefully that way you
can cut down your test cycle down to 5-10 minutes.
