We have no idea what the Toshiba BIOS engineers are thinking
and if their actions are deliberate or not.

If the platform has a Windows sticker on it, then it passed
some kind of Windows Compatible Test.

It is possible to read the tables back in Windows, and they
are not garbled -- so we assume that Windows makes a private
copy of them on this platform, and perhaps all platforms.
