My understanding of the recurring complaint Spengler and friends had
against Wind River, Google, VeriFone, Intel/ARM, etc. was that they
used old grsecurity/Pax 'stable' patchsets (sometimes with backported
fixes) applied against old, buggy kernels, thereby creating the
impression in downstream users' minds that grsecurity is buggy and
rather moldy. (As I said earlier, the cynical interpretation of this
complaint is that they wanted to get paid.)
