Seen in 2.6.32 RH. Apllies fine to latest Debian 2.6.32.
Please consider for longterm 2.6.32 and 2.6.33, shipped in 2.6.34.

RH: patch desc
"The glibc and the kernel disagree about the symbol version for the
__kernel_gettimeofday, __kernel_clock_gettime, and
__kernel_clock_getres functions.  The kernel provided vdso defines
these symbols with version LINUX_2.6.26 but the glibc expects the
symbols to have version LINUX_2.6.29.
As a result, gettimofday() and clock_gettime() do not benefit from
the vdso performance gain."

    [S390] correct vdso version string
    
    The glibc vdso code for s390 uses the version string 2.6.29, the
    kernel uses the version string 2.6.26. No wonder the vdso code
    is never used. The first kernel version to contain the vdso code
    is 2.6.29 which makes this the correct version.
