As I told you on IRC, I don't think there's anything wrong with
depending on kernel-header-2.4 - IF that provide evaluates to something
sensible. It doesn't. I can just force it by keeping kernel-headers
for PPC installed on the build daemon; I'll do that after my next fight
with bitkeeper. But I strongly dislike buildd-operator-voodoo hacks to
make dependencies work.
