As the owner of both a system with more than 10 usb root devices and a VAX, I support this change. The system with more than 10 usb root devices is a PC with multiple USB controller cards installed for the purpose of testing NetBSD USB device drivers against different host controllers (UHCI/OHCI/EHCI/XHCI), so I run into the limit every time I install a new NetBSD version to test. -- Andreas Gustafsson, [email protected]
