Hmm, yeah, the c2k platform uses that bridge too. I'll see if I can find
someone with one of those handy.
Since nobody seems to have a prmpc280/2800 anymore, it does seem prudent
to remove it. It would make validation easier for me in that its one less
platform to worry about breaking. If I don't hear anything in the next
few days, I'll make a patches to remove prpmc280/2800 support.
Thanks,
