What's the best way to run local.start scripts based on the current kernel version?

Is there a built-in way to do this?

I have two kernels, 3.0.x and 3.4.x, and the newer kernel needs a different script to run.

I knew I could do that, I was wondering if baselayout had anything that did something similar already. Didn't want to reinvent the wheel. ;)

May very well be, though neither do I know about it, nor could I find something related quickly in baselayout/openrc.
