If someone can provide an x86_64 kernel package for debian wheezy (or
put it in wheezy-backports I would be willing to test it and report (I
cant set-up a cross-build building system right now). I'm currently
planning on taking four virtualisation platform down this weekend to
reboot all systems and guests to work around the issue that already
hit production.

Many thanks for picking up the problem and working on a solution.

Kind regards,
