I know that's not really practical for you either. I hoped that we could convert them to be modular, but that hasn't started happening, so I think we need to fall back to your original proposal of making them bool and removing the modular junk. Eventually people who feel the pain of building in all the drivers might step up and make them modular. Do you want to update your series that removed the gratuitous module code? I'll be on vacation June 25-July 17, but maybe we can still squeeze it in this cycle.
