Makes sense. Especially since the version numbers tended to be stale
traditionally.
I would keep at least one printk for high level networking so that we know
it has started (useful to get some clue where we are on a total
hang)
One small disadvantage when e.g. the appletalk or ipx printks
are killed is that you cannot check if the user has compiled them
in or loaded. But that's probably tolerable. If it should be a
problem a /proc/net/protocols would be probably a better solution.
Are you doing it or should I send a patch?
