Thanks for the tip.  I am starting to gird up my loins to take on 2.4.2,
and now I know can't do it one box at a time (one box compiles wine, the
other uses wine to run my mail).  I remember Alexandre (or maybe Ulrich)
saying it wouldn't be hard to fix the compile-time/runtime kernel
dependency, but I guess I don't remember that anyone actually did.
