Beware of vendor patches that upstreams do not incorporate!  

We all remember the screwup debian caused a great deal of the internet
with its SSL mess a few years ago, that not only affected debian
servers, but all servers using certificates generated on a debian
machine, and not to be biased, RedHat has made some messes before as
well, tis why we no longer use either of their distro's nor their
slightly flavoured different cousins. I wont say which Linux we only use
to avoid OS wars :)

Just remember, if an upstream does not use an offered patch, there is
likely a very, VERY, good reason.
