I'm not sure, but I guess one of these kernel version numbers I've encountered during my Jessie tests in the Debian package source configuration [1] should take care of that:
Code:
debian/sysdeps/linux.mk:MIN_KERNEL_SUPPORTED := 2.6.32
debian/debhelper.in/libc.preinst:        if linux_compare_versions "$kernel_ver" lt 2.6.32
ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/tile/configure.in:arch_minimum_kernel=2.6.32
ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/tile/configure:arch_minimum_kernel=2.6.32
I think I remember that in the Wheezy source I haven't seen any check above 2.6.26 but my memory might be wrong and I was probably not as thorough as I was for Jessie.
I'll check that again when I have the time.

That reminds me of what I've read in the Debian changelogs. [2]
