Full hardware support still is not complete. Also I simply do not have the
time to redo months of work.
Any time I spend now basically means I get zero money from NLNet as the
donations from them are based on *milestone* completion, *not* on "time
spent".
4 weeks on OS rework equals ZERO PAYMENT from NLNet for that entire time.

Reason why 3.4.104+ has to be shipped was explained 18 or so months ago.
Entire OSes need to be redone otherwise.
