Actually it should go away before 2.6.0. sys_futex never was part of a released stable kernel so having the old_ version around is silly. I Think it's enough time until 2.6 hits the roads for people to have those vendor libc flushed out that use it. (and sys_futex still isn't used in the glibc CVS, only in the addon nptl package with pre-1 release numbers.)
