I will not insist in keeping it when there is pain to do so. And you may
be right that there is no user, but this is valid for a lot of platforms
and drivers.

Maybe we can wait for a few days to give more potential users the chance
to read these messages on the port-amiga list?

In the meantime I will talk with other Amiga users if anybody owns such
a board. Probably is@ still got one, as he was working on the driver many
years ago.

When nothing happens and nobody is able to test it, we can remove the code.
