This is not just for the kernel but for the entire distribution on the
whole.
How the hell cant you sit there and type that lie?
You probably meant to say "can" there.
It is known goal.

Fedora hacks number of programs because certain code in them doesnt go
along with fedora policy, even openoffice is butchered (ref: this
newsgroup recent thread) not even going to start on the multimedia
programs.
See the other objectives on why programs may have patches. Also refer
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/WhyUpstream for some
exceptions.
Multimedia programs usually have proprietary or patent encumbered codecs
are plugins that Fedora default repository doesn't include.
