I'd say a package wich only works with a recent kernel version is not a
problem. Add a note to the description, and let the program detect
availability of the necessary features at runtime, with a meaningfull
error message if the feature is missing.
By the way, the iproute package just got updated:
iproute (20010824-9) unstable; urgency=medium
* Added patch for HTB v3.6 to be able to work with kernel 2.4.20
(from http://luxik.cdi.cz/~devik/qos/htb/v3/htb3.6-020525.tgz)
(closes: Bug#147550, Bug#167149, Bug#167597, Bug#171277)
