In principle we should be able to do that.  I've considered
re-openning the 2.4/2.2 question myself, but I fear.  We need to get
woody out, no new features.

FWIW, we've gotten unconfirmed reports that boot-floppies doesn't work
with 2.4 kernels.  I think it turned out something else was the
problem.
