Necromancing:

I'm not presently familiar with reputations of reporters, commenters or
triagers in this particular instance.

However as a data-point, a popular enterprise server distro latest current as 
of writing (kernel-2.6.32-279.5.1.el6 amd64) enables 4 CONFIG_TASK kernel 
options mentioned elsewhere.
ᐅ grep .config CONFIG_TASK *
CONFIG_TASKSTATS=y
CONFIG_TASK_DELAY_ACCT=y
CONFIG_TASK_XACCT=y
CONFIG_TASK_IO_ACCOUNTING=y

Although it's trivial to piece together a custom kernel repo, a good
distro like Ubuntu Server LTS might want to stay consistent and
reliable.   This was the main differentiator against standardizing on
use Ubuntu's upstream in our last infrastructure refresh.  Can't say
what the next cycle will be just yet though.
