 * I've gotten a number of reports of breakages caused by installing
 * linux_base-6.1. The problem is not in the port itself, but in the linux
 * kernel module and more specifically in the absent of the rt_sigsuspend
 * syscall (syscall #179). I've just committed an implementation for the
 * syscall. Please update your sources on the next suitable moment and
 * recompile the kernel and/or linux kernel module. If there are still
 * problems caused by using linux_base-6.1 instead of linux_base-5.2, post
 * a description (as detailed as possible) of the problem to
 * emulation@FreeBSD.org.

I don't assume the kernel can be safely loaded on older release
kernels to get the desired effect?  In that case, I can't put them in
the upgrade kits, can you modify the port to check ${OSVERSION} and
exit with a message if the user's system is too old?
