Re: linux headers

I've just masked 2.6 headers in all profiles but the default 2005.0
profile. This way you wont end up with a 2.4 kernel + 2.6 headers which
is known to cause segfaults.

If you decide to use a 2.6 kernel and would like to use 2.6 headers as
well you can either upgrade to the 2005.0 profile or use
/etc/portage/package.unmask to unmask 2.6 headers.
