Yes. I hope next week we'll have 2.6.26-ovz001 and 2.6.24-ovz006 (after this
2.6.24 will be frozen)

This just mean, that we have a 2.6.27 kernel with our patches for our
purposes (there's no 2.6.27 repo, isn't it?)

None of development branches were ever considered to be stable. The 2.6.26
is not an exclusion from this rule.

Please, fill a bug with it.
