I use the matcd driver in an old IBM ValuePoint 486DX2/66 running
4.7-PRERELEASE (see boot message at end) in active service.

Speaking of "ancient devices," the machine using the matcd driver also
has an obscure MV Jazz16 sound card (requiring extra trickery in my
kernel config file to get it to probe and work). Will this also be
supported?
I don't run -current, but do track -stable (at least as well as I can
on a machine that takes well over a day to do a "make buildworld"), if
that helps any.
Cheers,
Paul.
