When I was originally writing this driver I was using pre-production cpu's which were marginal to begin with. Production hw should have been more tolerant. What didn't help was a lot of the EPIAs were made with *Really* shitty capacitors that would pop open and ooze over the boards.

That said, I'm not against itbeing marked BROKEN (I thought it already was), and certainly don't recommend distros enabling it. I'd also not stand in the way of someone throwing it out completely given the small amount of systems out there likely still running this.
