If someone is willing to do the work and not fsck things royally I don't
see a big deal about it. If nothing in system depends on it then it
shouldn't be there, we can trim 250kb off of all our stages and
liveCD's. Embedded gains 250kb off of their stuff as well. I just
don't want to see giant h0rkage in the tree because the person doing the
work didn't do a good enough job. *mutters something about tree
changesets*.
