If that's really what's happening, then that is _definitely_ the wrong
order, IMHO.  First, externals are a lot more likely to change.  Second,
that's bound to confuse people, since both MkLinux and LinuxPPC probe
internal first.  ;-)  Last, that's backwards by bus number, too (bus 1
followed by bus 0?).

Just my $0.02
