Are we sure that the change won't be reverted later in the RC cycle?
This change will break a lot of software that rely on detecting the
kernel version to make some decisions. Maybe the 3.0.0 could be released
as 2.6.40 to avoid unnecessary breakages?
I do not mean not working on supporting 3.x numbering correctly as soon
as possible.
