Why shouldn't it?  Fedora generally builds rawhide kernels with all kinds of
debug options set.

When you say you'll see what you can do, do you mean you'll see if you can get
the patch into .32, or change the Fedora config?  If you mean change the Fedora
config, I can do that myself.  I was more pointing out that you have a .32
patch not needed for .33 heading for .33... ;)
