Thanks.

It would be useful adding other kernels, but only where a vendor has
backported the offending patch to an earlier release, and then I'd want
actual release numbers from the vendor.

So if you could show me how to decode the gentoo kernel package information
so I could see exactly what patches were in which release I could work out
the release numbers from that ....

Thanks,
