I was imagining that this would be something for individual distros
to tackle.  It's probably not portable enough to go into the
contrib/start-scripts examples.  On the other hand, it'd make lots
of sense to have the Fedora or Debian or whatever scripts do this,
since they know what kernel version they're targeting.  (If anyone
wants to send me the fixes to make Fedora's script do this ...)
