I don't. All the boxes I care about have 53c8xx chips in them.

A slightly safer approach is to make sym2 the default for PA2.0 systems
and the old sym the default for PA1.1 systems. But GSC/HSC c720 cards
don't fit that model since they go into systems with either sub-arch.
I don't see a way around users "tuning" based on actual HW configuration.
