Well, my point was that I already saw the following two directories
/sys/boot/i386/libi386 
/sys/boot/pc32/libi386 
with almost the same contents, so I thought that you were planning to
remove one of them but didn't do it yet :)

So if my patch contained a patch to /sys/boot/i386/libi386/biosacpi.c,
I just need to change it to patch /sys/boot/pc32/libi386/biosacpi.c, right?
