Without that patch, what kernels does coreutils support then? Since udev breaks with pretty much everything below 2.6.24, I don't think it's useful to patch packages to support anything below 2.6.24.
It breaks support for kernels below 2.6.22. As our glibc supports 2.6.18 and above and people can have a static dev, so I thought this was a good patch to include. Anyway, it is an upstream patch, so the next release will make this moot... Allan
