I've developed a habit of checking the Subversion tree, and I noticed a =
note in -STABLE,=20
the addition of the mpr(4) driver.

I guess  it will be on 10.1, as it has been committed to -STABLE.

If you, for example, svnup your source tree to the latest and compile, =
you should have a new driver in GENERIC, called mpr.
