You can uncompress vmlinux.bin (located at arch/x86/boot/compressed/ not vmlinux at src root) from vmlinuz

for o in 0 1 2 3; do od -A d -t x1 -w4 -j$o /boot/vmlinuz | grep "1f 8b 08 00"; done
dd if=/boot/vmlinuz bs=1 skip=_the_offset_returned_by_od_| zcat > vmlinux

Anyway, I don't know what useful can be a kernel without debug symbols like is provided in Arch.
