It seems that for many people, building your own kernel is still
considered as a proof of virility. Great.

So that you could save 196 kilobytes, we'd have to clutter the whole
archive with packages compiled with or without SELinux support ? No,

these 196 kilobytes (YES! 196 kilobytes! that's horrible!), you should
use Gentoo.
