That's what versions are all about. It seems sensible to me to leave the old bad stuff behind; if people need it, it's all still there if they know the tag.

Are there any more of these buggy pentiums left in the coreboot tree? (If he chooses to update) I can imagine RMS getting real snippy if we break his thinkpad. :P
