why is it not linked to linux-module-extra?

i saw that openvz patch comes quite late too after upstream stable
release.

well porting is the oot trouble, but the openvz do very cool cleanups
along the namespace additions. although i kinda doubt that it will
be ready for lenny release. the next trouble is that vserver left
tracking mainline since 2.6.22.

we have not settled for the lenny version it is certainly > 2.6.24.
Most probable candidate is 2.6.26.

best regards
