Well its a bit complicated. If you copied it to that dir, it would be
applied, but would then break anyone who tried to use a 2.4.x kernel as
it isn't needed there.

So the sysklogd.mk file needs to test for the kernel version some how,
and then apply the patch only then. To do this it must NOT be named
FILENAME.patch as it would automatically get applied at all times.
Perhaps naming the file filename.patch.2.6 would work, once you have the
test for kernel version in the makefile.
