Nothing is straightforward about newt.  I would prefer our own wrapper
function that calls startNewt() and takes in to account whether or not it
should, what to do on the various bastard architectures, and so on.  Less
intrusive to the main code.

As for the blue screen appearing early, I don't care about that.  But we
should make sure that we don't try to do that on systems that will crash and
burn if we try to start up.
