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.
