``Not really'' is wrong, though.  It works the same way it always
worked.  The weakest point is IMHO the driver itself, which is
orphaned and seeks a maintainer.

However, if `lft' works better in some respects than `ft(8)', why
don't you commit it to the tree?  I understand that we can't drop the
old utility since both are incompatible, but nobody says we can't have
two.
