 I think this is the line I should get from configure then :

So far (and I have manually ran a check_dig about 50 times now where before
I would get a warning once every ten tries) all seems well with the plugin
too.
 However, I am wondering if even this regexp is enough. I think there is a
third kind of kernel used by Red Hat, the hugemem kernel. Personally not one
I am using over here so not sure what that returns on a uname -r.
 Either way, seems my check_dig is back on track, thanks.
 Cheers,
 Hans
