(I've uploaded new versions of the kernel-patch and the kernel-image
packages to 'deb http://people.debian.org/~mbanck/xattr-hurd/ ./')
This time, after formatting the partition, extracting my gnu.tar.bz2
with star went fine and I was able to boot into Hurd without any tweaks
(except fixing /etc/fstab, as I extracted on a different box). The
bootup was complete and successful and I was able to do some stuff like
adding a new user or installing a Debian package.
If you'd like to see any further testing, please tell me what I could
do.

Yes. Marcus and Neal already applauded me for my cautiousness *g*
Two small remarks to your patch:

Why did you drop the Kconfig data?

I had to add this '-' there, or else 'patch -p0' got confused and
produced this reject:
**************

extern struct ext2_xattr_handler ext2_xattr_user_handler;
