I will not.

The answer to this is already well known - the coreboot code is doing
something different, probably because it doesn't know better,
probably because the programmer has not written correct code.

While I appreciate that there are many users who would like all kinds
of things to work without them being able to fix it themselves, the
reality is that things will work when someone fixes them.

All these things are well-known problems. Correct patches would be great.
