People disliked that when we created the current kmod standard because
either you build the userland stuff for i586 and i686 or you have to add
a lot of
%if foo
#build userland
%endif
%if bar
#build module
%endif
into the spec file.

People also wanted proper debuginfo packages. This means that you have
to create the debuginfo packages either manually or have to increase the
release each time you build for a new kernel.
