Say it ain't so!   If you establish a dangerous trend like this in  
your support for floppy booting, the next thing you know, some  
computer manufacturer will start shipping machines without ANY FLOPPY  
DRIVE AT ALL, leading to the infocalypse, the four horsemen pouring  
their vials upon the earth, the birth of the anti-christ (or PERL 6,  
whichever comes first), dogs and cats living together, etc.

It's the end of days, I tell you!  The end!   Can the FreeBSD/NetBSD  
merger be that far off?
