Another weiredity I've come across in my 2.3 crusade: /dev/nvram
doesn't seem to work anymore.

Near as I can tell (and I'm about to try this and then see if bk will pass
it along happily) is that all the calls to nvram_init have been changed to
pmac_nvram_init.

I've just done a quick grep through kernel code, and found lots of
nvram code in at least three files, and decided it was too late to
follow all of them ;-)

That was in a drivers/char file, under drivers/macintosh, and under
arch/ppc, if I rember right....
