Of course they do, I'd be surprised to hear if anyone has shipped a 100%
bug free kernel, whether it be Linux, Solaris, AIX, Windows or whatever.
The point though is that RHEL is less of a moving target, if you current
setup works then an update to the kernel is less likely to break
anything, than say Fedora which frequently ships new versions of the
kernel.
One would hope that that these people complaining abut imperfect
kernels in RHEL are find these bugs on their test boxes _before_ they
deploy to production.

Compared to Fedora where you are *UNSUPPORTED* at the offset?
is XFS even in the vanilla kernel?
