I can back this up also, I've not had a headers-related problem since I |
| 24 |
merged 2.6.6-r1 when it had just hit portage.... emerge -e world, 400+ |
| 25 |
packages. Even mplayer compiles :) |

Portage 2.0.51_pre12 (default-x86-2004.0, gcc-3.3.3, |
| 28 |
glibc-2.3.4.20040605-r1, 2.6.7-hb3) |

My understanding is that glibc >=2.3.4 no longer references |
| 38 |
/usr/src/linux, therefore it would be beneficial to have a solid ~arch |
| 39 |
2.6 headerset for the sake of nptl and sanity and such. |

The change from linux-headers-2.6.6 linux26-headers also went fine here. |
