The Oxydo-ZCF and Anastasia kernels basically equal with the nAa kernel, both kernel based on nobodyAtall's kernel source, with few modifications, typically added I/O schedulers and governors (sgt. meow added some code changes to the Oxydo-ZCF kernel, as I remember it have frandom module, SLQB memory allocator and AHB overclock too).

Alfsamsung made his kernel on different way, it have advantages and disadvantages compared to the nAa (and Oxydo/Anastasia).
Main advantages:
- more performance
- new features: SLQB, frandom (these available in Oxydo too), newer kgsl, BFS, etc...
Main disadvantages:
- missing keyboard reboot function
- different proximity driver (need to patch all MiniCM based roms with libsensor patch to get working proximity sensor)

To get the full list of differences check the changelogs in the kernels threads or better if you read the github commits (if you understand it ;))

No, I'm not a captain... ;)
Anyway the new .32 kernel from nAa also work with GB roms (the OP listed GB only kernels, so I think he/she want to use 2.3 roms), but basically this is useless, because it have too much bugs. :(
If you can live with the not working bluetooth, headphone, buggy mass storage, the idiot jb partitions and few other bugs you can get a little bit more performance with the .32 kernel. :)
