You know, I had looked at gpio(4) to see what it was like, and it hadn't
occured to me that ADCs would fall under it.  But I can think of no reason
why they shouldn't; after all, it does seem to fall under the heading
of "general purpose I/O".  Anyone object to me developing some API extensions
to gpio(4) to handle ADCs?
