This reduces -binary- size, as shown by /usr/bin/size? Strings should
be merged, which makes this strange...
Anyway, I might be able to claim to be the first user of 'PFX'. You
will note that it does not have a prefix... on purpose. The idea is to
save typing a repetitive and changing-for-each-driver string.
Just use 'PFX' in the source code, like you find in other drivers.
