Just curious, but what about 2.4 kernel users?  As I understand it, the
2.4 gentoo-sources seems to be the only currently supported 2.4 kernel
for x86, so do these drivers even work there?  If not, it makes the
point moot, but if this is the only way for 2.4-based Gentoo users to
use their hardware, it might be a bad idea to remove them just yet.
