If the hurd fanatics insist that everything that people are now using
must be thrown out so it can be molded to fit hurd dogma I can pretty
much guarantee that you'll never see "1.", so "2." is fairly irrelevant.

But, the answer to "2." is that requiring massive changes to "handle the
hurd" would mean that Red Hat is no longer Red Hat and Slackware is not
longer Slackware.
