????? What the heck does this mean? I would bet that most larger
installations of Linux or FreeBSD or any other open source OS would be
considered non-standard. Heck, I bet YOUR installation of FreeBSD
could be considered non-standard. Your statement make absolutely no
sense.
If the fix that you decry is a reasonable fix, who says it can't be
rolled back into an "official" release. This is open source after all.
