linux/fs/sysv/symlink.c in patch-2.4.10.bz2

[Eric Van Buggenhaut]

patch-2.4.10.bz2 pretends to install a new file

linux/fs/sysv/symlink.c

 which already exists in 2.4.9.

I also notice v2.4.9 is dated ... Wed Dec 31 16:00:00 1969

Woaw I didn't realize I had been playing with linux for so long !

Should 2.4.9 be remove before installing 2.4.10 ?

Thanks.
