The 2.1.X kernels come with a list (Documentation/Upgrading.txt ?) of
packages to upgrade in order to build/run them. I've recently checked that
list and found all of those packages already installed in my system (I use
the "unstable" distribution and update daily). There is no official policy
requirement for developers to support upgrades for use of development
kernels, but the "unstable" stuff (and project/experimental) tends to be on
the bleeding edge.
