That same changelog entry says that 2.4.32 will be the default kernel in
the next release.

No, it says, "...probably...".

Ok, but in the most cases "probably" means "yes", especially when Pat
says this.

The kernel version 2.6.13 was part of the mainline in Slackware 10.2 so
I don't think you should expect any fuss about this.

That may well be true, but it's not accurate.

2.4.32 is still the default kernel.
2.6.16.24 has been moved from testing to extra
2.6.17.4 is now in testing.

From the changelog for Slackware current Fri Jul 14:

-8<--------------------------------------------------
The name of the big kernel with many built-in options has been changed
from test26.s to huge26.s to reflect that Slackware 11.0 will consider
the 2.6.16.x kernel series to be a supported kernel series. However, I'm
probably going to leave the bare.i 2.4.32 kernel as the default kernel
-8<--------------------------------------------------
