Another good use for /usr/src/linux/README.mandrake would be to list all 
patches used, as Gentoo does:
What's in this kernel?

INCLUDED:
        from http://www.kernel.org (ac):
                2.4.19-pre7-ac2
                removed the software suspend patch; it can be dangerous and
                conflicts with the new ACPI
        from http://oss.sgi.com/projects/xfs:
                SGI XFS 1.1 (Official release code -- the most thoroughly tested)
and so on...
