As far as I can see, this are symbols that belong to the IPsec section of the
kernel. This is not a part of the standard kernel and is not really needed if
you don't use a VPN based on IPsec. If IPsec is a part of every mandrake
kernel, try to disable it in your kernel config (network options), or look for
a kernel that doesn't support IPsec at all.
