	Since the new UFS/VM code has gone in to CVS it is HIGHLY
	recommended you do NOT sup for a week unless you are fully
	prepared to pay for it DEARLY...

	I order to get recent sup's to more or less work with the C=/Ameristar
	card, apply Ty's little fix below AND force the if_le.c code
	to set the vendor ID bytes to whatever is appropriate in if_le.c,
	look for the if statement that decides based on a 24 bit shift that
	doesn't work on newer kernels for some strange reason!?

	Value is 80:10:00 for C= boards.
