I have to admit that I cannot tell for sure.

Looking at what happenend I think I ran across the ep88x a bit later
in the process of the board removals, intended to remove it, got
interrupted, and then forgot to complete it.  Sorry for that.

Yes, that would be great.  It seems we all agree that this is a dead
horse anyway.

Thanks for your careful checking, and thanks for volunteering to
complete the board removal. Both is highly appreciated.
