No one is asking them to "support" FreeBSD, just don't break things for
no apparent reason.

This is roughly analogous to an auto maker building a car that stalls
every time you drive it under a high voltage power line and then
"solving" the problem by saying:

	We don't support high voltage power lines. We recommend
	you don't drive your car under high voltage power lines.

And how would that be relevant to a discussion of the A20, A21, T20, T21
and X20 models?
