linux-headers-2.4.20 doesn't exist, and I'm responsible for re-writing linux-headers-2.4.21
from scratch (to utilize kernel.eclass).

I'll re-assign this to myself since I'm responsible for this minor oversight
and correct it.

Corrected in CVS, thanks for the report.

Did you happen to see linux-headers-2.4.22? Which is the one that I should
of said instead of linux-headers-2.4.20. Sorry.

linux-headers-2.4.22 is missing PROVIDE line too.

Guess you did see it.

linux-headers-2.4.22 is just a cp'ed linux-headers-2.4.21, so I fixed that
too when I fixed 2.4.21.

I do recommend on being careful with linux-headers-2.4.22.  iputils, the
package which provides neat tools like ping, tracerroute and such, will not
build against 2.4.22 because iputils is one really strange package.  This
is why 2.4.22 headers are keyword masked for now.  I simply put them in there
incase anyone wants to take the initiative to figure why they and iputils
don't play nicely together.
