Exactly. Right now, I'm really up to my eyes in various kernels.
The final (hopefully) 2.4.20 update for RHL 7/8/9, FC1 bugfixes, and
of course FC2. (All this, and trying to keep an eye on upstream 2.4/2.6)
Re-basing to 2.4.23 is at least a days work, and right now, there's
just no gap in my schedule to accommodate this. It's also not as
simple as it sounds, as there's a bunch of changes in 2.4.23 that
we'd want to drop. (The CONFIG_NR_CPUS patch for example).
