One thing I noticed when in the svn for LLH was that Jeff Bailey is
listed as an author.  This is only significant because later when I
was perusing debian, I saw he was listed as a developer on the
linux-kernel-headers and libc6-devel packages.  So this could be a
good way to go as well.

Debian has a 2.6.13 set with patches
http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/l/linux-kernel-headers/linux-kernel-headers_2.6.13+0rc3.orig.tar.gz
http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/l/linux-kernel-headers/linux-kernel-headers_2.6.13+0rc3-2.diff.gz

You could probably figure this out yourself, but untar
linux-kernel-headers*.tar.gz and enter that directory.  Then,
gzip -dc | patch -Np1 -i -

There's a lot in there and I got tired of looking and trying to figure
out what's going on.  One strange thing I noticed is that they take
the include/asm-i386 directory and install it as asm-i486.  Must
upgrade the headers to obsolete i386.
