Seems I lost my lonely ATAPI CDROM with built in changer to the eternal=20
HW scrapyards, let it rest in peace :)

Finding a new one seems difficult so I thought I'd ask around how many=20
still has one of these ?

I ask because the support code for those seem to have suffered bitrot to =

the degree that it most likely hasn't worked on -current (maybe even=20
5.x) for a long time, but alas I cant test that.

Now, since it seems that such devices are no longer made, and newer=20
really caught on, I need some good reasons to keep the (broken) support=20
in there.
