You are right, LFS cannot keep up with the kernel changes.
I already informed the maintainer of the code too (David Miller).
But I think at least a NOTE in the stable LFS's errata would be suitable,
to prevent others (probably few) from running into the same troubles.
It took me a very long time to catch this error (with fun).
btw. looking quickly at the code of 2.6.32.12 and 2.6.33.3, these kernels will
probably expose the same problem.
