Or as it says in the text you quoted: "This is in contrast to modified source from distribution for instance that will usually add some patches" Vanilla source == unmodified source Non-vanilla source == modified source Any modified source. If OpenBSD modifies the source, it's non-vanilla. If Debian modifies the source, it's non-vanilla. Personally I don't like the terms vanilla and non-vanilla but I think their meanings are fairly clear.
