Since we have some interest in keeping tapsets working with older
kernels, we generally need to use kernel version-sensitive
#if/#else/#endif conditional compilation in embedded-C code. (An
analogous %( %? %: %) construct exists for script code, and is
documented in the man pages.)

That is fine. Please also see src/HACKING for additional guidelines,
such as designation of a copyright holder for your changes.
