The -legacy image is expendable only if we decide we don't want to provide
any kernel support for systems that don't work with aboot; there are systems
we haven't supported installing directly on since woody, but there is still
some interest in these on debian-alpha.
The -smp image cannot be merged into the -generic kernel because there are
problems today with relocations in some -smp modules, so an SMP build
currently has reduced functionality. This may be a toolchain problem, and
there may be a workaround for it if I figure out how to set per-target build
flags for the kernel.
