does fast movement stack?

Tried to use Search but it's not cooperating right now... :\

Anyway, does fast movement gained from multiple sources stack? A better question might even be do the same Extraordinary (Ex) effects stack if gained from different sources?

For example, does a Bbn/Scout add their fast movement rates together?

Another wrinkle in this is that the monk's fast movement, while classified as Extraordinary, is specifically listed as an enhancement bonus whereas the barbarian fast movement is unnamed.

My impression is that unnamed bonuses do stack but just want to be sure. Thoughts?

AFAIK, unnamed bonuses stack. So Barbarian and Scout would stack with each other, and with a monk's enhancement bonus as well, but the monk's bonus wouldn't stack with that of an expedious retreat spell since it is likewise an enhancement bonus.

Yes, unnamed bonuses from different abilities stack.

Stacking
In most cases, modifiers to a given check or roll stack (combine for a cumulative effect) if they come from different sources and have different types (or no type at all), but do not stack if they have the same type or come from the same source (such as the same spell cast twice in succession). If the modifiers to a particular roll do not stack, only the best bonus and worst penalty applies. Dodge bonuses and circumstance bonuses however, do stack with one another unless otherwise specified.

Yup, pretty much I thought. Thanks for the fast replies everyone.

Bbn/Scouts: The fastest charge machines. Faster than a horse, stronger than an orc and more skilled than the local womanizer.

For extra fun, add in Catfolk and Pounce.

The Scout's speed bonus is also an Enhancement bonus, so it wouldn't stack with the monk.

Neither with Boots of Striding and Springing.

As for Catfolk Pounce, you don't need that. Get Two-Weapon Pounce (PHBII).

Why not chuck in a level of PsyWar and get Speed of Thought too.

speed of thought, skate, celerity or travel domain... So many wonderful options for speed.
