Okay, I managed to use binary packages from Debian pure64/sid to
bootstrap a build.  I've created an apt repository at

  deb http://juckapan.org/~kalle/ubuntu/warty ./

with the packages I managed to build.  They're not well tested, use at
your own risk!  Comments about the packaging are welcome, I know very
little about how to make good Debian packages.  The only changes I've
made to the original source packages is adding amd64 to some places in
the debian/control files and adding changelog entries.

And FYI: Since building GTK# packages seemed difficult, I've used my
Mono packages to build Mono 1.1.1, GTK# and friends from tarballs.
Now I have Tomboy, but sadly no packages to share.  The build process
was pretty painless, though.

Peace,
  Kalle
