Well, since ketchup does not in any way rely on the kernel version
reported at 'runtime' (ie by uname), your patch doesn't actually affect
ketchup.

Anyway, I think that this discussion is a bit 'offtopic', since I didn't
think you had ketchup (or similar scripts) in mind for this patch.
I just replied to Pavel, just to let him (and anyone else interested)
know, that ketchup has in fact been updated to handle the newer kernel
versions.

Thanks,
