Linux kernel version in release criteria

I don't think the release criteria should involve an old Linux kernel
version with known problems compiling with current GCC. GCC 3.0 is not
going to be a recommended compiler for 2.2 series kernels; I think it's
better to specify 2.4.0 here (with an option to move up through 2.4 stable
kernels until the final version used for testing needs to be frozen). OK
to commit?
