The GM bankruptcy itself was pretty unique and unprecedented, to be sure. There were a number of things that were not "normal" about it, mostly because it's not every day that a country's largest manufacturing enterprise and one of the largest companies in the world [[or at least a company that was formerly one of the largest) goes into bankruptcy. But the continuation of the Delphi settlement terms wasn't one of them.
GM was, however, as part of the fallout of its own bankruptcy, able to make a better deal for itself on the Delphi bankruptcy and any pay out only a portion of its obligations.
