If this kernel is really some special, we should add it to linux's
latest.defaults and update linux spell so users could choose it by "cast
-r linux".
Now if user choose 2.6.27.X, his kernel is not updated by "sorcery
system-update".
Personally I am really fine with latest maintained kernel
(LATEST_maintenance_patches), now 2.6.30.
If we want to "support" this "uber-maintained" branch, we should think
about glibc's kernel headers version (is latest maintained headers ok
with this version?), is udev, module-init-tools, ... ok with both
"maintaned" branches?
