Damn, you got me. This is the only annoying thing with having
multiple releases on the same kernel level. They're not
/exactly/ the same kernel, and as they come different
parts of the CVS tree, it's perfectly feasable for
a 2.6.9-1.650 to show up in FC2, FC3, and devel (FC4).
I could do something really ugly, and just bump the
devel kernels up past the last released FC3 kernel
each time I do an update, but that is a little sick.
