The big picture: linux_lib has been replaced by linux_base, which is based
on RH 5.2 packages. Linux mode on -stable does not yet support the
additional requirements of a RH 6.0 based environment, although -current
now does. RH 6.0 based versions of linux_base and linux_devtools can be
downloaded from my personal pages at http://www.FreeBSD.org/~marcel/ for
those running -current.

I'll make you a deal: I'll invest some time now to make you a set of
patches so that you can run RH 6.0 based programs on -stable, if you are
willing to invest some time in testing and debugging it if a problem does
occur. If it all works out well, I might get it into the next release. How
does that sound?
