Or you can switch to devel or test sorcery.

I also confirm it is fully functional and that it burns through 
benchmarks like fresh pizza on the roof of the mouth.

For some reason though I couldn't build my own kernel straight out of 
the iso installer because it was expecting gnupg (despite it being an 
optional dependency) and it wasn't in the list of optional spells -- 
catch 22.  In any case, using the provided kernel allowed me to rebuild 
later -- once I updated sorcery.
