Just for posterity, could you list the drivers that make an upgrade
impossible?

IMHO, if these boards were sold commercially we should maintain support if
there is a chance that we will get open drivers in the future.

OTOH, if you can tell who each of these boards to, it is probably a good
target for removal. :)
