 FRACK.

 ok - is it critical?

 or, more specifically: is the fact that it's "closed" irrelevant,
thanks to the reverse-engineering that's been done?

 this is important.  if it's closed and that requires some random
proprietary bit, no matter how small it screws things up.  if it's
closed and that means some reverse-engineering had to be done which
resulted in a working G-Series CPU in coreboot, it doesn't matter.
