I guess you are seeing it just hanging at "Uncompressing Linux... done,
booting the kernel."?
I guess the way around that is to install the u-boot loader package.
Alternatively CONFIG_KERNEL_LZMA=y will get the kernel zImage size back
within size limits that will boot on n900.
Hmm, I'm a bit puzzled. For me, .38 works but .39-rc1 does not, and I
can't see any "special" limit exceeded. Also LZMA is broken:
Uncompressing Linux...
LZMA data is corrupt
-- System halted
I did some bisecting, and with the following commit reverted -rc1 works:

ARM: 6746/1: remove the 4x expansion presumption while decompressing the kernel
With the revert, also bigger gzipped kernel works.
