Well *someone* has to still make sure the kernel compiles correctly on
the enterprise distro's that a huge number of Linux users use...
(including RHEL 6, Debian Stable, SLES 11, Ubuntu LTS 10.04, etc.)

But yeah, I hope to get off of Ubuntu LTS real soon now, and onto
something a bit more hip, such as Debian testing.
