10 Actually, I have. The gist of what I recieved from it was nobody was gonna say
11 this is how its done definitively, referencing Arjen's as the definitive
12 2.5/6 header set and that if a program doesn't compile properly, its the
13 programs fault. I know some stuff doesn't compile against 2.6 headers, but
14 the faster we find them, the faster they get fixed,no?
