1.) Kernel Headers, yes you knew this was coming but its certainly worth

a.) Do we stick with LLH and pray it takes off again
b.) work with Jim's methods of sanitizing our own headers
c.) Look at what other distros are doing and try to work with them
d.) A N other option
I'm in favour of using b) as a stop-gap until the kernel guys have sorted
out their headers (hopefully in 2.6.18).
I'm in favour of d.) A N other option, go back to the way we did it with
LFS-6.0

install the raw kernel headers from the 2.6.16 kernel in
/tools/glibc-kernheaders and compile glibc against them. For userspace,
keep using the 2.6.12 sanitised llc headers. Works for me. It worked
well for LFS-6.0. It's a tried and tested method that builds glibc
against the current kernel API.
