Some of the drivers are pretty close, but the bigger source is the
linux/pmac sources.  I don't think it would be hard to get some of
the mac-specific sources under a dual license (BSD & GPL) and most
would probably have to be seriously modified to fit our driver
framework, anyway.  This is, in fact, the direction I plan to take
when I get back to it.

Anyone wanna buy me a PB3400/240 so we can have the fastest laptop
unix system?  ;-)
