But the freedom is still there. The freedom to either keep your system
as it is (don't upgrade), or to modify the source code to suit your
own needs.
Just don't expect from upstream to maintain code for each and every
possible configuration. It gets really complex really really really
fast.
Upstream (either Gentoo, or the kernel, or udev, or all of them) will
decide to support only a subset of all possible configurations and it
will mark them as supported. Don't aprove of that? Then maintain it
yourself (which you have the freedom to do), or keep up with the
change.
Freedom doesn't equals to "give me everything I want, and the way I
want it". The freedom we have is "here is this set of programs, and we
support this set of configurations; if you don't like it, here is also
the source code". Which is light years better than in Windows or MacOS
X.

Yipi indeed.
