I have an SiS card lying around somewhere. It's pure fluke that it was
the Matrox I picked up to stick in my Pegasos the other day rather than
the SiS. 

Non-portable code is broken code. I'd much rather see it just getting
disabled -- we can be more pragmatic in the run-up to a release, if it
isn't actually fixed by then.

Per-arch exclusions are _always_ bad, because they tend to get forgotten
about.
