My point is that the agp module used to build and load fine on Alpha
(though I don't know if it worked, as my PWS doesn't have an AGP
slot).  Then Eric commits a patch which broke Alpha support, and
instead of trying to rectify the problem with a few well-placed
#ifdefs, Peter just yanks it from the Alpha build.  Is that really the
way to go?
