I thought use of /usr/src/linux was not recommended anymore. On my
distro, that file would point to the original kernel, the one that
glibc, et al. is compiled with, not my current running kernel or ones
I've not yet booted with. Perhaps a `uname -r` with command-line
override would be more appropriate?
