Yes. And "maintenance" I presume means "copy" the kernel headers and do some cleanup to be compliant to the relevant standards (which the kernel maintainers couldn't be bothered to do). > They're split from the kernel headers and we don't need to keep > obsolete junk around. I agree about obsolete junk. However statements like "No kernel headers can be included by userland anymore" can be slightly misleading.
