Fair enough.  I think this should go in, so consider this approved,
unless other re@ members voice in and are opposed to this.

However, I think we should be extra careful with this once since
it's a rather central and important piece of code for many people,
and as far as I can tell, this patch has the side-effect of trusting
the hardware more than before.  We've had a rather bad history of
trusting hardware :-).
