I think one should rather file a bug report against anything actually 
using these sections. That includes any linux distro that does so.

I am only partly joking. The thing is, it was a bad design decision 
in the past, and it started creeping in, during the growth and 
evolution of various unix distros, and I don't see it serving any 
real purpose. It's like the appendix - everybody has it, but it 
serves no real purpose, and without it, you're better of.
