benh ppc kernel -- why for all architectures?


I just used rsync and got the latest benh kernel over dialup last night. The whole thing (uncompressed) took up about 175 MB.

What's weird though is that I think I got source for all supported architectures.

Why would the benh kernel -- which is tweaked for powerpc -- come with code for every other architecture besides?
