For me these patches can be optionally only for 68040/68060. User can choose, if he want or dont want to use MOVE16 versions. Some bad designed Amiga turbo cards can not be main target for good program. Especially, if it costed program performance. F.e. fast ATA driver has many different copy routines with and without MOVE16.
