Not often, no.  I'm perfectly happy that I don't have
to touch that.

That sounds nice.  There are slightly fewer things called
SPU than there are called SPE I imagine?  Or is it just a
historical misnomer.

If I'm told there are all these other things in the kernel
called spe_ I don't feel obliged to grep for it to check
if this is really so.  Maybe I shouldn't trust people that
much, dunno.
