This change would be a win except for the above - these devices were
very widely deployed in fairly popular devices like the Sharp Zaurus
devices so there's quite a bit of deployed distro config in things like
Angstrom which would get broken if we updated, and some user community
remaining too.  On balance I'd say that the cleanup to use the new
feature isn't worth the disruption it'd cause to userspace.
