We could and that would be done by moving the code back from the Lucid repo to
the Karmic repo (in order to make kernels for a release be in the release repo).
But frankly, even this being not a big issue to do, I do not really want to
spend any effort on something that is not used. And if every development and
project has moved to Lucid, why bother?

Ike, are you aware of any Karmic arm project for OEM that use the fsl-imx51
branch there?
