Really too much work to be worth the effort. Requires backporting
all the EA, ACL, and SELinux code.
All of that backporting has already been done by NSA & friends.
However...Jef is right, though more articulate that I was about why not
to do this. I do not want to detract one bit from 2.6 testing
*especially* when it comes to SELinux. With that said...I will stop
distracting you all from testing 2.6 kernels :-).
