Yeah, they should all get set back to "cheap". There was a while when
DIAGNOSTIC became expensive, and some but not all of the descriptions
were changed to reflect that, but it was wrong and so they should all
be switched back...

There are still some that say expensive; theoretically we should wait
for people who know about the platforms involved (evbarm, evbmips,
evbppc, evbsh3, ews4800mips, hpcsh, hppa, ia64, iyonix, playstation2,
sgimips) to confirm that DIAGNOSTIC is not in fact expensive on those.
