	It is generally recommended that you use the ifenslave that
	corresponds to the kernel that you are using (either from the same
	source tree or supplied with the distro), however, ifenslave
	executables from older kernels should function (but features newer
	than the ifenslave release are not supported). Running an ifenslave
	that is newer than the kernel is not supported, and may or may not
	work.

	To install ifenslave, do the following:

	# gcc -Wall -O -I/usr/src/linux/include ifenslave.c -o ifenslave
	# cp ifenslave /sbin/ifenslave

	If your kernel source is not in "/usr/src/linux," then replace
	"/usr/src/linux/include" in the above with the location of your kernel
	source include directory.

	You may wish to back up any existing /sbin/ifenslave, or, for
	testing or informal use, tag the ifenslave to the kernel version
	(e.g., name the ifenslave executable /sbin/ifenslave-2.6.10).

	IMPORTANT NOTE:

	If you omit the "-I" or specify an incorrect directory, you
	may end up with an ifenslave that is incompatible with the kernel
	you're trying to build it for. Some distros (e.g., Red Hat from 7.1
	onwards) do not have /usr/include/linux symbolically linked to the
	default kernel source include directory.

	SECOND IMPORTANT NOTE:
	If you plan to configure bonding using sysfs or using the
	/etc/network/interfaces file, you do not need to use ifenslave.
