Well ... You want minimal and not a lot of fluff to get in the way,
Slackware certainly sounds like it fits your bill.

As in, there is no dependency tracking, and up until last year I had a box
I installed in 95 and had done updates/etc by grabbing source and
compiling (and I only learned upgradepkg last year, when I started using
it at the office too).

There's a couple things based off slack that are even more minimal, but I
don't remember what they are.  Admittedly, slack isn't necessarily
"bleeding edge", but since you can proceed to ignore everything about
slack once you've installed it, you can do upgrades to your preferred
version and the distro will never complain about it :)
