Joeyh doesn't seem to care which we do (he said it's the same amount of
effort for him both ways, he just asked that whatever we decide be
consistent for 2.4 and 2.6. So, I'm going to recommend reverting the
tty locking patch and bumping the SONAME. For 2.4, this makes sense
since the kernel w/ the broken ABI hasn't propogated to sarge yet. For
2.6, this is a bit more painful, since the broken ABI is already in
sarge, but.. *shrug*.
