I agree fully with you: Xubuntu 12.04 should stay on 3.2.0 kernel. But
why should Xubuntu 12.04.4 stay on it? If everybody can still use the
12.04 distro if having driver trouble?

Because it's currently the only kernel (plus the X.org version that
goes with it) that still supports the restricted nvidia-96 driver for
old Nvidia video cards. Same goes for third-party SiS 671 drivers.

Xubuntu 12.04.4 LTS does not support the hardware stack Ubuntu
12.04.4 LTS supports. It stays on the 3.2.0 kernel instead. What
is the process to have this fixed? Withdraw Xubuntu 12.04.4 LTS or
create a Xubuntu 12.04.4a LTS? I am ready to fix this distro (at
least for 686 and amd64 architectures) and make it available for
download through my FTP and HTTP servers. What is the correct
process for this?

When booting the Xubuntu 12.04.4 LTS Desktop CD this is what I get:
cat /etc/issue
Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS \n \l
and
uname -ar
Linux xubuntu 3.2.0-58-generic #88-Ubuntu SMP Tue Dec 3 17:37:58 UTC
2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
which is the kernel of Xubuntu 12.04.
