I just adapted your patch to the 2.6.24 headers. In BugLabs we used Poky 'pinky' and then switched to OpenEmbedded 2009-stable tree. At that time we used 2.6.2x linux-libc-headers as this was present in both trees and selected by default. When BUG 2.0 prototypes started working we started move from phoneme to openjdk as java-vm provider. To build openjdk newer linux-libc-headers were needed due to lack of HWCAP_THUMBEE define in 2.6.2x ones. Patching default version was better solution then switching to newer one as it gave us smaller chance of build failures. And that's whole story of it.
