No. It's really really not. 1.6ZD is the latest -current (development)=20
kernel. Among other thinngs, we now have a new signal delivery sustem=20
(SIGINFO) in the kernel, and userland uses it in preference. The new=20
kernel interface was not present in 1.6.1.

While it's usually ok for userland to be older than the kernel, it's never=
=20
good for it to be newer.

Take care,

Bill
