I have not seen much complaints over kbuild-2.5, and what I have seen (i.e. it was slower) Keith has done a very good job of addressing (i.e. now it is faster). Whatever items come up in the future, I suspect Keith is committed to fixing. Right now, however, it is certainly hard for him to maintain kbuild-2.5 against a moving kernel tree and work on new features.
