The problem I think even if we submit upstream patches its down stream 
distros that sometimes take a while to update their development stacks 
such as make. One distro in particular is ubuntu sometimes, they have 
the latest and greatest, other times you need to push them to update, or 
push a newer version to upstream debian for it to wind its way down 
stream into ubuntu.
