In the warp case, I basically don't care. I know LE would break some of
our telephony drivers since we assume PPC is BE. But on the other hand,
realistically, it will never get turned on by customers anyway.

We have to provide our own .config anyway, so it really don't hurt us
as long as it doesn't break BE support.

Cheers,
