Now, the code may work perfectly fine, and Keith's done a lot of work, but it's just not community friendly code. A package should have a clear responsibility, few dependencies, not too many extensions, no overrides if at all possible, and must install and uninstall cleanly without hosing my system. If it doesn't meet those criteria, I don't consider it safe to even experiment with.

If it uses overrides, the MC1.5 should be able to uninstall it. However MC1.5 probably depends upon it. So you are probably stuck there.
Kernel-Extensions are not supposed to be removed, they are supposed to be integrated into the main image. We have two ways of doing this.
We are slowly breaking it down into bug fixes on mantis, however these are changesets and are not removeable either.
