:
: With quick glance, at least this should be rewritten to use bus_space(9).
: Using inb()/outb() in the MI deivce driver is not acceptable.
Also, matcd was removed from FreeBSD because its license was
unacceptible to us. The license is appended to this message. Do you
really want to force all distributers of NetBSD to include the text in
#4? With all due respect to the porting efforts, maybe a 'clean room'
implementation from scratch might be more useful to the larger BSD
community.
