I'm sorry for not following up on this sooner.  My opinion on this issue
has not changed, but I've run out of energy to continue arguing about
it, and anyway it's probably more important to make the Linux-libre
developers happy.  Do as you think best, and I'll make adjustments on my
private branch as needed.

     Thanks,
       Mark
