I'm tempted to remove OHW, and whoever cares about PREP emulation can make 
OpenBIOS work. I admit I don't really know how much effort this would take, 
but I'd be surprised if it's all that hard.

IIUC calling OHW an OpenFirmware implementation is a bit of a stretch. It 
implements the bare minimum required to boot certain ppc-linux kernels.
