I guess that 2.4 compatibility is not an issue. Most modern Zaurus
distributions are even unable to run Sharp ROM compatible binaries.

Distributions either stay on 2.4 kernel or use modern systems based on
modern kernel 2.6 API.

Distributions that decided to migrate to kernel 2.6 are far from
finished state. Any change that allows to use modern applications using
standard kernel API is welcome.
