Maybe is my little understanding of the situation, but isn't linux-api-headers behind what it (appears to me that it) should be?
The linux-api-headers package is entirely unrelated to the running or installed kernel. It contains the headers that give glibc the API to the Linux kernel, and must never (NEVER NEVER NEVER) be different from the version that glibc was built against.
Please, someone give me a cent for every time this question is asked.
It may help if this information is in an easily reachable area, as I couldn't find it anywhere after searching the wiki and forums followed by the internet as a whole. The closest thing that I found was from LFS, but this actually makes it seem like it is very closely bound to both kernel and glibc.
