IIRC, the phrase "bug for bug compatibility" was used by the Wine 
project to describe the fact that their implementation matches Windows 
behavior, which is sometimes "buggy" with regards to their 
documentation.  If the Wine project built an implementation that was 
faithful to the documentation, some Windows applications which relied on 
the actual behavior of Windows (buggy though it may be) would not work.

There is no reason to believe that the CentOS group will not correct 
bugs simply because Red Hat does not.  Their aim is binary, not "bug for 
bug" compatibility. 

Can we please avoid using that phrase to describe Linux distributions?
