Yeah, and new kernel currently still means you have to pass 
--enable-kernel=2.4.99 to get it enabled :-)), I will send a followup patch 
for kernel-features.h as soon as the kernel patch ends up in Linus' tree 
(which can take a _long_ time for PPC patches unfortunately :-(( ).
Just to clarify, the patch has been tested with all 4 combinations of 
old/new kernel and old/new glibc.
