Speaking of kernel headers, when I asked on IRC about building uclibc against 
2.6 yesterday, Eric pointed me to:  
http://ep09.pld-linux.org/~mmazur/linux-libc-headers/

I emailed that guy and he said he has no plans to push any of his changes 
(which are quite voluminous) back into 2.6 mainline, because it's just too 
big of a delta from what they're doing.

I'm just wondering if there's any sort of consensus on this kind of thing.  
Red Hat has its' own headers, debian has its own...  Is there some kind of 
reason for all this?
