If you're pretending that Linux Kernels, BSD, and other open-
source operating systems (and operating systems based on
open-source projects) are patch-free, you're sadly mistaken.
While other operating systems generally clean up the spaghetti code with a major point release of the kernel (such
as the 2.x release), the noodles will pile up between those
major point releases with patches.
