sometimes wondering if I wouldn't go back to make my own system instead

Have a look at ArchLinux. Here it provides me with the freedom to
set up and configure a system as I want it - a quality that slowly
but surely disappeared from Suse and Fedora which I used before
(F8 was the last).
It's a 'rolling release' system - you're supposed to update your
system regularly (daily for hardcore Arch users, about once a month
here) instead of installing a 'new release' every half year or so.
This works quite well, and I never looked back. And you'll have a
package for the latest Ardour very soon after the each official
release.
