Actually I just checked with the person who I thought told me this and
pulled the kernel source myself. I'm wrong on that front. The hooks
should be processed however for Ubuntu, Debian, & Fedora. If a user
installs a kernel on their own, they have to go and run these hooks
themselves.
That shouldn't be something supported though from a distro perspective
(rolling your own kernel w/o packaging).
