That's exactly my point. I don't *want* to have to ask the glibc people.

I want to have the kernel ABI headers ship with the kernel, and only
with the kernel.

I want to be able to change one header file, recompile my kernel,
recompile my app, reboot, and pick up the change. glibc should not even
be a factor.
