John,

Wait a sec.. systrace was rejected from the hardened kernels. Please

patches in the 6000 range are excluded from hardened-sources, and are
bundled into a hardened-patches-X.experimental.tar.bz2 patchset.

Basically, the reason is sits in the tree is to follow hardened-sources
development and to ensure the systrace patch is kept up to date as
appropriate for either systrace-sources + hardened, or potentially
integration at some point in the future.

At the moment its simply just sharing a repo - and these can be safely
ignored.
