I'm going to nip this in the bud here and make it clear that I have no
intention of abandoning hwd.  Unless the Gov says otherwise, it's
staying in extra.  hwd does more than just generate xorg configs and
even then I think it can be updated to generate 'correct' configs.
We're talking about feature requirements that *just* went public in
the past week.

What's the rush?
