I guess I'm ok with it. I can't make much sense out of the changelog, and I don't really understand how the reallocation stuff works. In this case, the aperture *size* from the BIOS is actually OK, but the beginning of the aperture overlaps system memory. With Yinghai's patch, we reduce the size and move the start. Windows was able to just move the start of the aperture and preserve the original 0x20000000 size (but I think it had to move something else out of the way).
