One benefit of keeping a corresponding area in vendor-sys in sync is it
makes it easier for other folks to pick this up in the future if need be.

Noting the upstream version in each update is probably equivalent in
functionality, though it is not how we do it in the rest of the tree.

Also, Adrian, most of us do a lot of this work (FreeBSD) as volunteers.  Even
if some of us work on some of it for ${WORK} we work on other bits in our
spare time for $0 as well, so that's a lame cop out.  Part of the reason we
do this in our spare time is because it's a chance to do things "right", not
just quick hacks to satisfy a business-deadline at ${WORK} (to paraphrase
gibbs@).
