you missed the point of my reply ... flatly discarding anything because we 
dont currently support it is a bad place to be

what i was implying wasnt for you to discard an entire solution, just be more 
flexible

forward thinking is what has allowed Gentoo to be trivially ported to what was 
once considered unsupported (i know it's helped a ton in porting to obscure 
cpus :P)

now, put that in your pipe and smoke it
