[oe] linux vs. linux-libc-headers?

[Steffen Sledz]

We're using Angstrom distro at hipox machine.

For this machine we need to use kernel version 2.6.24 (selected
by DEFAULT_PREFERENCE_hipox = "1" in linux_2.6.24.bb) because of
some special machine/driver support.

Angstrom uses linux-libc-headers version 2.6.31.

This results in some dirty problems, e.g. the headers report the
existence of inotify_init1 (introduced with 2.6.27) but it is not
available in 2.6.24. :(

It seem's not to be possible to use DEFAULT_PREFERENCE_hipox in the
linux-libc-headers recipes. So what's the right way to handle this?
Something like PREFERRED_VERSION_linux-libc-headers_hipox = "2.6.24"
in angstrom-2008.1.conf?
