It seems that everyone is using 1024 categories (Fedora/RHEL counts as "almost
everyone" and Debian counts as "almost everyone else").
I think it's the best thing to have the upstream policy defaults match what is
being most commonly used when there is no good reason to do otherwise, and as
the number of categories is entirely arbitrary there can't be a good reason to
do otherwise.
Please apply a patch like the attached one. If nothing else it will save
about 50 lines from each distribution's patch.
