Or, as a compromise - throw them into <arch>/pic/pic_* if there are  
architectures that use more than 2 private PIC types.
Also, I don't have a problem with moving PIC drivers that aren't  
100.1% MD - if there's the slightest chance we might need them on  
another arch they should probably go to powerpc/pic right away. This  
doesn't apply to macppc's though, unless someone wants to run ofppc  
on a new world mac ( which actually might just work, and some of them  
use Heathrow PICs ) ;)

have fun
Michael
