Thanks for the patches. But, FWIW, I'm opposed to advising users to go "on the 
internet" download a non-trusted (as in "there is no trust path to/from 
Debian") blob to put on their machines. I think we should only do it if that  
"plop" can be considered as part of Debian (as in "packaged", see e.g. win32-
loader or loadlin ).
