Yeah, it seems Marcello released this to specifically address this
issue. Perhaps he has adopted the policy of keeping a separate tree
with just critical updates for the cases where things like this
happens, so a new kernel can be pushed out the door rapidly. I remember
seeing the policy proposal discussed on Kerneltrap some weeks ago.
Anyway, any idea when we will see a kernel-source-2.4.24 package?
Cheers,
