Comment (by jdreed):

 Discussed at release-team.  Going forward, we will support N..N-2 LTS
 releases, supported Ubuntu releases, oldstable/stable/unstable debian, and
 i386_rhel4.  That drops our sysname list down to about 16-20 depending on
 the time of year.  Some special cases:

 *_ubuntu904 - the first Debathena cluster release.
 *_deb40 - the "first" Debathena release.  (This is rapidly becoming the
 i386_rhel4 of the Debathena world, and we should do something about that.
 Fixes to #1538/#1540 will help with this.
