I disagree a little.
Google may be decades ahead, but IPV4 being unsupported is a very
reasonable system configuration option that will eventually be part of
every OS.
Most of the time nonstandard kernels can be simulated for testing via
LD_PRELOAD interposing in front of libc, since we never talk to the kernel
directly.
And even if some changes can only be tested with Google's linux kernel
mods, that is still OK IMO.
