The openvz-sources kernel (stable) is already patched to supply drdb support. However the sys-cluster/drbd ebuild still wants to pull in the sources of sys-cluster/drbd-kernel and tries to compile them (which fails here anyway). However, it would be nice to have a check for openvz-sources in the ebuild and in such case only install the drbd tools and no kernel stuff.

with the recent inclusion of drbd into mainline, it makes sense to drop the PDEPEND completely and let the user install drbd-kernel manually if necessary
