Is it possible (and desirable) to build 3.05-rc2 against 2.6.18.8?
There may be problems using the standard set of patches.
I gave it a shot, and this looks like they applied cleanly...

Agreed?
This makes me a bit nervous though:

.config:3113:warning: trying to assign nonexistent symbol XEN_REBOOT
Is this related perhaps?
Also, is there any reason why 3.05rc2 *doesn't* default to 2.6.18.8?
If not, should I submit a patch?
