Aha:

commit 31d21785cc590e16256557ad6f5a51e1dad92be6
Author: Bill Nottingham <notting at redhat.com>

    Rename the confusingly named and descripted 'base' to 'standard'.
Make its purpose more clear, and convert it to a general
infrastructure group.

- i.e. trying to build f18 spins based on the packaged spin-kickstarts
is broken as they pull base not standard (which leads to interesting
things like wireless not working due to missing crda). I've haven't
checked whether that's fixed in git. Thanks for your pointer about
base, I wouldn't have found this otherwise.
