Perhaps it would be useful to setup a little script that

1) downloads the latest 2.4.x kernel (maybe via rsync)
2) modifies it using latest cpufreq from
   http://ftp.linux.org.uk/pub/linux/cpufreq/
3) creates the patch against the unmodified kernel
4) gzips it and moves the resulting file in the right place

Such a script should be run daily (via cron) on ftp.linux.org.uk

This could perhaps work and provide up-to-date patches, as long as 2.4.x
cpufreq at http://ftp.linux.org.uk/pub/linux/cpufreq/ is kept up-to-date
with 2.6.x

Perhaps patchin.sh should be modified in order to use cp (or mv) rather
than ln -s

What do you think?
