RFC 2068 is the proposed standard of HTTP/1.1, and it was not included in the draft standard (RFC 2616) because (I think) of concerns that it wasn't implemented back then. If you look at the IANA header registry you will notice that it continues to be a registered header, and that there is no distinction between headers for HTTP/1.0 and HTTP/1.1. That being said, a new spec for the Link header field has been approved a few months ago (http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-nottingham-http-link-header-10) and should be published as RFC very soon now.
