They ship their own copy because the system copy was historically a
mess. At some point in time they'll have to either use the system copy
or ship a full system image, and hope users won't lynch them.

It's not so much a technical issue as a mindset issue - having several
different teams maintaining the same code because they've all decided
cooperating is too much work makes little technical sense really.
