the root of the problem is that not all packages maintainers of distributions send feedback/fixes to _origianl software writer_. And you have cases like this. Diferents tastes from same software, everyone with its bugs and features.
Without to go too far, there are a lot of stupid fixes into distributions kernels not present in 2.4.21-rcX
This is a general problem, and IMHO the distributions maintainers should send more feedback to package maintainer more frequently.
