The whole BK thing is just another reason to dislike Linux for me. (Most of the other reasons are technical)
If you're talking general about the microkernel vs hybrid-monolithic, isn't that debate still open? In *theory* micro should win, but in practice, most of the successful ones are hybrids at the moment.
There are proprietary microkernel systems which are quite good (except for being non-free, of course) and even fast. QNX and BeOS are examples. But there's no production-quality free microkernel system yet.
If you're talking about general crap in some of the code, then I'm sure certain pieces of GNU software can be found to have the same...
But certainly not the Hurd. :-)
