Duh :-(

But before we dig into details I think the big picture would be
better. I honestly don't like the #ifdef pile here that much. I wonder
whether your approach, also with GETVX/YRES adjusted somehow, wouldn't
look cleaner? Like I said in the cover letter I got mostly distracted
with fbcon locking last week, not really with this one here at all, so
maybe going with your 4 (or 2 if we squash them like I did here)
patches is neater?

Cheers, Daniel
