I think you're the only one who's mentioned trustworthyness of ROMs. I don't
have a problem with that. My gripe about kecardd is just that it seems
somewhat over-engineered and it increases the memory footprint to no purpose
on 26-bit machines. Perhaps the solution is to create a cut-down version of
the podule support for those systems though, then you could remove a lot of
the #ifdefs in ecard.c.
