I did a pacman -Syu and got linux-lts-3.0.54-1, it did this:

error: command failed to execute correctly
I went into mkinitcpio.conf and appended serverworks and ide_disk with a question mark, that let it compile without error but when the system started up again it froze at the command prompt. I had to use a rescue disk and then chroot the system and:
$ sudo pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/linux-lts-3.0.53-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz

The system loads without freezing up at the command prompt 10 seconds in, like it did with the latest kernel. Is the removal of serverworks and ide-legacy a permanent thing or merely a mistake? If it is not a mistake what modules should I use in place of serverworks and ide-legacy if I needed those for a stable system? I have made pacman ignore linux-lts for now.
