FWIW multiple kernels is a long desired feature and I'd be happy to see
a patch which allows the kernel classes to be configured to build a
second kernel with a different package namespace.

The kernel-headers class may be ok too and simplify the documentation
process, particularly if the subdir to put the headers in was
configurable.

Cheers,

Richard
