Martin, hold on just a second. Last I checked, sys_wait4 was
used ONLY by a moronic code in ipvs, _and_ there was a comment
by the author above it "we are too lazy to do it properly".
Do you have a better reason to export it?

Guess I'm the malefactor this time since I've sent this patch to Martin 
after some email exchanges with a guy that wanted LVS to work on a s390. 
I reckon I will fix the said moronic code to use a syscall wrapper for 
sys_wait4() so we don't step on anyone's toes.

I should not have called it moronic. Everyone has schedule
constraints. I am wondering though, if the LVS and ipvs
module are maintained actively. Perhaps I owe them a patch.

Don't worry about it. We haven't always been too kind with lost RH 
piranha users in the past either ;).

LVS and its kernel modules are definitely actively maintained all the 
way from 2.2.x to 2.5.x kernels and if you want I'll make you a 2.0.x 
kernel version too. It's just that recently everybody got a bit busy and 
thus new releases tend to follow each other in increasing time intervals.

A patch would always be very welcome of course.

Best regards,
