I understand that it is specific to OLPC, since it is for supporting
hardware that is only found on the OLPC. But this is the first I have
heard that it will break on other systems. Is my test in setup somehow
inadequate?

> Of course it's perfectly fine for you to say you only care about OLPC builds for XO-1 (because the number of XO-1s running non-OLPC builds is minimal, especially if you don't count developers). But in that case your patch should be included in the OLPC builds, not in Sugar mainline.

To include this in OLPC builds and not Sugar in general is a
reasonable argument. The only counter argument I could make would be
that some portion of the OLPC users are relying on builds that are not
provided directly by OLPC. As long as there is a way to pull these
bits in for them, it matters not to me whom provides them.

thanks.
