2.2.19pre9 fixes the base ptrace attack, the sysctl bug. The PIII fpu bug
                doesnt apply to 2.2 unless you applied the PIII patches to it

2.4.0 didnt have the ptrace bug. The -ac tree has both sysctl and fpu fixed.
                I believe the current Linus 2.4.2pre has fpu but not sysctl
                fixed
