 We don't build the modules.
 All I see is that the driver files have moved from files.i386 to
files.x86
 So yeah in theory someone could build a custom amd64 kernel with this
driver. But given that we've never exposed this to the amd64 world I
doubt that we need it.
 I'll wait for the thread on current@ to continue and if we really want
to keep this obsolete thing for amd64 I'll revert.
