Except that the mga_hal is the only file that should be necessary, and
even if the mga_drv.so from the matrox-distributed source helps in one
specific case, it *will* cause regressions elsewhere.  The issue here
isn't clean deinstalling.

Which is why I wouldn't commit this PR.  Instead, someobody experiencing
a problem should look at the diffs from 4.3.0 (?) to this source and
find what the problem actually is for them.

Even better would be for someone to RE the HAL and make it go away
forever.
