I guess David was thinking to something like linux_compat-7 which
install cleanly over linux_base-7 as linux_devtools and such do.

so, linux ports which require 7.1 are safe w/ linux_base-7 and
the ones which require 6.x are safe w/ linux_compat-7. no more
need to install linux_base-7 over linux_base or whatever...
