I've no idea what "no, it can't" mean, but I've already made this
change for 2.6.16 in SVN several days ago. However, I don't expect
there'll be another upload in time for beta3. Frans suggested I
should disable nslu2 for now in d-i, which I can of course do. But
I'll probably do a fake binary NMU of linux-2.6.16 with the SELinux
change before beta3. It's not nice but should be okay since that's
not the final kernel for the release anyway.
