Strawman, mostly because all distros suck, the less patches you apply the
less likely things are to work, LFS is the most fragile thing out there,
etc. Hurp derp.
If you need a feature not in the distro, and it is needed because you have
installed something not in the distro or not new enough, you will have to go
get it yourself. If you want a bleeding X, you should be prepared to build
bleeding DDX and Mesa. If you want a new kernel FS, you probably need a
newer e2fsprogs or xfsprogs. If you want new kernel DRM, you will need a new
libdrm.
That process is relatively distro-agnostic.

So what distro would you recommend for people who want to do kernel
development, do kernel testing, and do kernel bisects to help us find
bugs?
Are you basically saying, "Kernel people shouldn't use Fedora"? So
what should we use instead?
