I hadn't checked all architectures, but was well-aware it is built-in
for amd64.  I was suggesting it should change from being built-in to
being a module.

The reason being AGP is very rare on amd64 motherboards.  According to
the handy reference, AGP was starting to disappear just as amd64 hardware
started hitting the market.

I'm unsure where other architectures stand on the issue.  Yet amd64 it
shouldn't be built-in.
