well, I have found two things:

1) the debian directory is very similar in both (upstream and debian 
official). The method to create the package is described in the xenomai wiki 
and have been working so well till now (at least in my case). The script or 
the patch applied in the versions of the kernel 2.6.28>= introduces something 
that make fail the make menuconfig step. If you apply the patch with the 
script (scripts/prepare-kernel.sh) the make menuconfig works

2) after the step of preparing the kernel, (with xenomai 2.4.10) when I 
compile the kernel (2.6.30., it fails in:

 CC      arch/x86/xenomai/hal-common.o
arch/x86/xenomai/hal_32.c: In function ‘rthal_latency_above_max’:
arch/x86/xenomai/hal_32.c:139: warning: passing argument 1 of ‘die_nmi’ from 
incompatible pointer type
arch/x86/xenomai/hal_32.c:139: warning: passing argument 2 of ‘die_nmi’ from

make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
  LD      arch/x86/oprofile/built-in.o

Now, I'm compiling 2.6.29 with 2.4.10 ...
