Aiee. FWIW, netbase needs this for the 2.2.x networking utilities,
which have been replace in 2.3.x by netfilter. ipmasqadm is probably
the only thing that needs that particular header. :-/

Hmmm. That shouldn't be strictly necessary actually. (But will probably
be necessary on and off until I do a new upstream tarball).

I'll probably think about splitting netbase in woody, since it's
becoming a damn pain needing, essentially, three different and mutually
incompatible sets of kernel headers to compile the one package... :-/ In
which case, I guess I can do some sort of Build-Depends: on kernel-2.x
headers?

I don't speak for anyone save myself. GPG encrypted mail preferred.
