With that patch applied I was able to successfully boot t1.micro instances with a 2.6.37 kernel:

ubuntu@ip-10-112-5-120:~$ uname -a

x86_64

ubuntu@ip-10-117-61-4:~$ uname -a
Linux ip-10-117-61-4 2.6.37-12-virtual #26+686692v2 SMP Thu Jan 20 11:33:17 UTC 2011 i686 GNU/Linux

t1.micro

i686

Next step will be to send this upstream to see whether it is an acceptable approach or not.
