Vanilla can do, however -bs has one little additional feature (mconsole-exec) 
and contains all bug fixes written after the release (only few important ones 
go to -stable, they're very restrictive and some -bs patches don't fix 
critical "regressions"/crashes).

In fact, most times 2.6.n-bs is entirely merged in 2.6.(n+1).
