I admired some of Justin's commit mail for giving a different relevant
message for each file.  I thought that he was doing this for different
files in the same directory, but the log for `sys' seems to only show
different messages for different directories.  Justin's drivers are
split across many directories to support many buses, so this is easier
for him :-).
