I wouldn't know how to show that it's safe and correct to push linux-2.6 
in at this time, so I guess I won't be doing this. Hopefully someone 
else does, otherwise Etch won't be how it was announced.
There are currently 4 RC bugs against linux-2.6. #342246 and #242866 are 
clearly preexisting. #369517 already affects testing through 
linux-2.6.16 and should also be ignored unless removing linux-2.6 from 
testing is considered. Finally, #383481 is not reported against any 
version and can be considered as either invalid or preexisting.
