If they care that much they should submit a patch to build a PReP  
specific kernel that doesn't include this stuff.  And while you are  
buying G5's for people send one my way :)

I vote that we just get ride of this sections stuff for prep, pmac,  
of, chrp and if we want to reduce the code size make it a compile  
choice to build specific kernel's that dont include the crap that the  
others need.  (especially based on the numbers that Jon has posted  
for size).
