Wow, I had no idea.  I'm surprised that a major distribution is like
that.  In Gentoo-land, kernel compiles are part of the natural order of
things and you can either bring your kernels (including vanilla ones) in
through the portage system by simply emerging them or you can drop them
in /usr/src the old-fashioned way.
