There's no need for it.  We just don't have a way (with .spec magic I know,
anyway) to decide at the right time whether we need one or not.  The
kernel's 'make vdso_install' target either does or doesn't make one.
Except AFAIK none ever does at this point, apparently because the Xen
support it was there for fell out.  There was a time when we thought that
the powerpc and/or s390 vDSOs might use the same mechanism too, but
apparently they never did try to do that.


Thanks,
Roland
