Linux 5.1.5 is available and corresponding linux-headers would be handy for people using Linux kernel versions in the linux-5.1.x series.
Sounds good. Any specific highlights in new headers?
Our rip-headers.sh hack from https://gitweb.gentoo.org/proj/toolchain/linux-headers-patches.git/tree/rip-headers.sh stopped working around: directories=$(find ${src}/include -mindepth 2 -maxdepth 2 -name 'Kbuild*' -printf %h' ') because upstream dropped superfluous Kbuild files in commits like https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=3d33fcc11bdd11b6949cf5c406726a094395dc4f We either need to once again adapt to it or take another approach, like using full kernel tree tarball without ripping off anything.

It will increase time and temporary space to unpack a tarball but it should be comparable or smaller than other toolchain packages like gcc or glibc. It's a reasonable price not to maintain our header ripping tools. More maintainable solution would be for upstream to provide headers-dist Makefile target (and tarballs).
