Well, yes, schedutils probably would need updating. I don't know of
anything else, though. We only care about the Debian packages for
sarge, I assume, right? If so, couldn't someone do a trivial find
across all sources for sched_{s,g}et_affinity? I'd be happy to
volunteer to fix all the packages that are affected (I'm not too
worried, the number will be very small, I'm sure of that).

That would really be unfortunate because it will mean that Debian is
incompatible with all other modern distributions. It's very likely
that it will cause a lot more grief down the road because new software
will break. For example, recent LMbench3 releases started to use
sched_setaffinity() and of course they use the correct (new)
interface...
