Please don't spread misinformation. ide-scsi is an essential part of the 2.6
kernel and beyond, and it is essential for IDE tape drivers and also
for CD multichangers

Its essentially a Red Hat misjudgement that it isn't included but when
asked to put it back Arjan has pointed out that turning it back on for
everyone mid release might cause problems in some setups.
