For what it is worth I agree with Joe. I like the idea of a simple wrapper
that looks for/at /proc/net/ip_vs and exec the appropriate version of
ipvsadm. I believe this will give us good flexibility to handle a sutuation
where ipvsadm is very sensitive to the version of LVS as happened when
fwmark support was added.
I'm not sure that this wrapper should be the default way that ipvsadm is
installed but it does make sense to support this for situations where more
than one kernel is on the system and the kernel in use is being changed
from boot to boot.
