I couldn't tell without reading/checking the files (which I don't have on my machine), and this may not be conclusive. I would suggest getting a newer kernel source and compiling from that source since many bugs and security holes have been fixed, and this should/would remove the doubt of missing or bad files. -- Some people have convictions.
