 The EC modifications for this are trivial.  I will make up a new test
 firmware tomorrow and wad is going to mod a board with the new resistor.
 The new ID will be C3.

 The _real_ question is whats going to break when the kernel/olpc-configure
 sees a board ID of C3.  In the past audio stopped working cause it falls
 back on the older wiring scheme.

 Kernel folk can you please take gander at the code that deals with board
 ID and see if a 'C3' is in whatever case statements are there?
