Well, the question is why bother with this legacy code at all?
I would expect a much more conservative approach. Except for essential
patches to keep the hardware running, everything else should be
rejected. Nobody is expecting new features for this ancient hardware
anyway.


As long as the new code is tested, there is no reason for not accepting it.
It's how open source works.
