Given that some many distros are taking .32 as the basis for long term 
release support I find that a rather incomprehensible decision from 
the -rt people.

There are *always* reasons to not use a particular kernel. Let's be happy 
we have one that has already stabilized quite a bit at this stage of our 
release process instead of continuing to second-guess the choice.
