Ido, thanks for the heads up :)!

I considered Arch's "core" as something comparable to FreeBSD's
"world". The "base system" should be apart of the Arch's philosophy to
follow upstream, even if upstream releases something as stable that is
well known as completely broken as e.g. ... ok, I resist ... ;).

Everything in "core" has to be as stable and as proved as possible.
