Is there a glibc-kernheaders package created from 2.6 yet? I can not find
one. I understand that kernel developers have stated that use-space programs
should not include kernel headers but I don't understand who sanitizes them
for use in /usr/include/linux etc. Is this the work of the glibc team? Red
Hat?
