Just to make a slight correction here:  -current has code which, if
the hooks it exports were used by the `wd' driver, would allow the
bus-master IDE DMA feature of the Triton chipset to be used.  The
current `wd' driver does not support this, and nobody has yet spoken
up to say that they wanted to write the code.
