This is no longer needed by any userspace tools, so it's safe to remove.

Really? I thought that was fixed a long time ago. What kernel was RHEL5 originally based on?
And note that no RHEL5 user is going to be using a .36 kernel on their system, that's a completely unsupported and unadvised situation. Heck, I'd be amazed if a .34 kernel.org kernel boots on the thing, does it?
Live with your mistakes guys, don't try and bury them.
I'm not, I honestly thought that we had resolved these issues.
So, which version of Centos matches up with RHEL5 so I can go download it and see if I can resolve this? We might just be able to reduce the ammount of code we remove here and keep the Kconfig option around, if that old userspace is expecting a portion of the symlinks to still be present.
