Probably because the nouveau drivers require a (moving) git snapshot
of drm in order to work, which potentially breaks all sorts of
non-nouveau stuff (and you can't really restrict it to just nouveau
users).

I'm currently working on making some nightly snapshot Ubuntu packages
using Launchpad's new PPA infrastructure.  If there's enough demand I
could also build debian packages from the same source.
