Different set of media.  I think the pattern is that most of the changes go 
into the base "normal" kernel where they make sense, and become conditional 
compiles if they're only necessary for B2.  (I don't work for DG, this is 
how the process was explained to me by a 3rd party) 

That makes good sense.  It's also probably the easiest way to keep the
source trees consistent and make it easier to generate patches for both trees.
