Don't we have 2.6-kernel left? If so, I guess that we ought to leave the
2.6 versions of the recipe. At least if I remember correctly in that a
userspace compiled against a certain version of kernel headers should
run OK on a newer kernel, but isn't guarenteed to run OK on an older
kernel. Correct me if I'm wrong...

Cheers,
Anders
