What happened to if (fb->open) return -EBUSY; in sbusfb.c? This is
wrong!!! Is this so brain dead apps like fbvt can work on this platform.
Well it's heading in the wrong direction. I posted before why this is a bad
idea. You should not allow multiple process access to /dev/fb at the same
time. You are going to have problems!!!!

Q: Why did they deprecate a.out support in linux?
A: Because a nasty coff is bad for your elf.
