Maintaining a customized kernel, huh? That's brave. Do your
modifications have to be built into the kernel itself, or could they
live in one or more modules? It's one thing to build a kernel for a
single machine, but I suspect it is an enormous amount of work to build
a kernel that will work reliable on a variety of different hardware. If
you distributed a package of modules, much of that work could be
avoided.
