I can't imagine that Yusuf or anyone else is planning on using it in a greenfield design, but there are several scenarios where using an older processor makes sense. Telling people to switch processors is a simplistic waste of bandwidth. Anyway, Yusuf: Here's a link to a patch that was submitted by *Ilya* *Matvejchikov*.
