BSD/386 is shipped with drivers for a number of pieces of h/w
( which escape me right now ) in binary form ( .o ) only as the
driver is controllerd uner a non-disclosure agrement. 

While this is not what I would like to see I does at least give
me the chance to use the h/w if I need to. I can still chose
not to use the h/w...
