That doesn't really answer my question. The ability to provide one
bitstream to work across all Milkymist One board revisions is as
important as the ability to provide one lm32 binary/rootfs for all
boards.
Maybe one day we do indeed need two bitstreams, but going from one
to two means the update feature has to pick the right one, and it
also increases testing and maintenance costs going forward. So
breaking binary compatibility is always something you want to avoid,
if we care about regular users who just want to keep their box
running.

So... it's still a valid question whether moving pins from one bank
to another will force us to deal with two different bitstreams now.
