That's right but OTOH I'd simply declare the sysctl-by-number interface dead for new introduced sysctl. We need to preserve backwards compatibility of course but that's not a problem. I'd preferred if we killed it completly (just providing backwards compatibility) during the 2.4.x cycle. Only reliable way to use new sysctl is sysctl-by-name IMHO.
