That may not be a *problem* as such. It is just possible that the glibc
that your machine uses has been compiled with the same headers.

But if you want to upgrade the kernel on those machines, then the link
should be removed, otherwise, there will be a mismatch in the headers
that were used during glibc compilation and the headers used to do stuff
like netfilter.

did you diff and check? I don't run either slack or conectivas distros
so can't verify a local setup :-)
