No idea. I never used them and I don't know any user space tool using them. They were already present in SLES9 or even earlier. Don't know how to determine whether any of them gets used by any application, but I doubt they are used. I had a quick look at the glibc sources, I couldn't find anything explicitly adding acpi kernel headers, they may get added by accident through some regex. What is the reason you ask this for, do you get name clashes with other programs, should they get reverted for cleanup reasons? Thomas
