Odddly enough, without any real cross-distro discussion about it. (In
fact, I'm fairly sure cups wasn't nearly in unison, SuSE shipped ALSA
before it was upstream, Fedora shipped libata for ATA at least a release
before anyone else, etc.)

In fact, most of these moves are because the kernel dropped things on userspace
and everyone had to scramble to catch up.
