Sure, but not tomorrow.  =)

I'm waiting on the kernel team who is in charge of all kernel updates.  
Due to the time involved and the sheer number of kernels, I'd suspect 
something by the end of the week or early next week.  Unfortunately, 
when it takes nearly 24hrs to compile all of the kernels (and that 
doesn't include pre-building and patching, testing, etc.) doing kernel 
updates can be a somewhat lengthy process.
