That particular example didn't get moved just because we didn't notice it.
AFAICT the only person doing regular sweeps of the kernel to check for such things is Alexandre, and he's completely jumped the shark so most people who are actually doing useful work on this stuff have started ignoring him.
S'probably worth going through the current deblob script and working out if there are more examples like the one you provided above; thanks for that.

What does 'jumped the shark' mean?
FSFLA: Linux kernel is "open core" Posted Nov 18, 2010 10:33 UTC (Thu) by mpr22 (subscriber, #60784) [Link] From Wikipedia: Jumping the shark is an idiom used to denote the point in a television program's history where the plot spins off into absurd storylines or unlikely characterizations. These changes were often the result of efforts to revive interest in a show whose audience had begun to decline.

While I do find some of the FSFLA's publicity material surrounding Linux-libre to be of dubious quality and appropriateness, I am less than convinced that "jumping the shark" is applicable here.
