hello all. i would like to propose that we officially drop support  
for 2.4 kernel profiles (especially default-linux/x86/no-nptl/2.4).  
over the last few months it has been increasingly difficult to keep  
2.4 systems up to date. here are some bugs i filed recently  
discussing this:

http://bugs.gentoo.org/174697
unmask linux-headers-2.6 on 2.4 profiles
(eix 0.8.8 compile failure)

http://bugs.gentoo.org/154018
alsa-driver-1.0.13 fails compile on hardened-2.4 and vanilla-sources

http://bugs.gentoo.org/177357
media-sound/alsa-driver-1.0.14_rc2-r1 compile failure


thoughts from the arch teams?
