We've only _just_ started paying attention to what we export. I tried to keep the initial cut of headers_install very simple and uncontentious -- sticking to implementation, and not policy. So I didn't do a particularly thorough cull of stuff that we shouldn't be exposing -- it's expected that we may lose _some_ more stuff. But breaking userspace like _this_ isn't acceptable, and we're not doing it. -- dwmw2 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
