Okay, how about this... 2.1 kernel-requiring stuff (and a current 2.1 kernel?) can be included under "contrib". This keeps it out of "main" and puts it into the realm of "user-beware". (Note: This is not to insinuate that everything in contrib is dangerous or anything, but just that you should think at least once before installing it.) Acceptable?
