Well, it's supposedly too late, but it's dead simple and shouldn't have
much chance of breaking anything, so I suppose as long as we don't
include the korg1212 patch and the rest of the similar patches which
we're still working on, that's not such an insane request.

As long as the one or two drivers I mentioned get tested, that is.
