Yes, the kernel will have SMP support like the official kernels. It needs recompiling, which will happen on the build farm of Canonical. Any other questions?

I would love to host the PF-Kernel, which is really awesome, but I am not able to package it. You can get more informations at pf.natalenko.name or just google it - there was a article on WebUpd8 if I remember correct. 

Maybe I should try to get in touch with the kernel team, so that someone could help me with the packaging issues....
