The LKCD patch is no longer part of the SUSE kernel source. I checked
lkcd.sourceforge.net, and no patch for the current version. It appears
that kexec / kdump is now the only dump tool available for SUSE.

Yet, the lkcdutils package is still part of the distribution. It should
really be dropped, as lcrash is no longer functional. lcrash requires a
Kerntypes file, which is no longer created during a kernel build. At
this time, lkcdutils is a totally useless package.

The only kernel dump analysis tool left is crash, and it is not part of
the standard distribution. Besides, crash is the only utility that
understands xen dumps.

I also noticed that /etc/sysconfig/dump still exists.
