Personally, I suspect that it's because gcc-2.95.2 can't compile working
kernels without a LOT of screwing around.  I've yet to make the debian
compiler from frozen give me a working kernel.  I'm much happier with the
WORKING software that RedHat ships.  If you're looknig for RPMs that you
can't find, try www.rpmfind.net, and the rpmfind utility.
