It's probably very common in PC emulators so it will be
important to MFC into stable.

FWIW, two other cards (maestro3 and csaimg) are based on
headers from OSS that are now under a BSD license.

The maestro3 is done (kern/153920) and is next in my
list but it's getting difficult to find testers for
this old stuff.

Cheers,
