Hmm, ok, let me check that... it would indeed be nice to port this to gen5.

Since you seem kidn of opposed to OF_PLATDATA, does it make any sense
to continue on this? I mean, I thought I heard people here saying "use
OF_PLATDATA" if you're running out of space in SPL. After using it, I'm not too
keen on using it, either, but it does seem to give me some code space back...
