While I agree this is a valid reason to preserve it, here comes another
question: how to decide?

- Ubuntu dapper could be using 2.14 for _3_ straight years
- Mandriva, if following its 1-yr release schedule, may not ship 2.18 at all
- Solaris (well, I don't even know its release schedule)
- .......

It's hard to draw the line here.
