Yes.

I downloaded kernel-2.4.21 from kernel.org (-> I don't use other
people's source-packages :-) ). My xfs-patch-version is

 "snapshot-2.4.21-2003-06-23_01:45_UTC"

The Kernel was compiled using a Woody-System with some backported sid-packages
(kernel-package, some kernel-modules-source-packages, po-debconf, ...).

This Kernel runs on ~ 30 PCs, 25 of them are AFS-Clients.
