I unpacked the source RPM to some kernel, I don't recall if it was 
CentOS' or Fedora's, but there were something like a hundred patches 
applied to the original kernel.org sources.
I don't doubt that many of those were a good idea, but it would have 
been a great deal of work simply to determine which ones were both 
important and properly implemented.
