Could you please remind us what the arguments agains including a few
seleted tools within the kernel source tree was.

I ask because I really cannot see why so much nosie is generated?
As a naive user that like easy access to the stuff I work with
this looks like an optimal place to find the kernel-hacking
tools I need. Why should I hunt somewhere else to find it?
