No. I looked at 'fifo', but that would have caused some automatic

There are still bugs in the parport code, and it's quite tricky to
talk people through how to track them down with the enormous number of
possible code paths. Being able to get people who don't know how to
even build a kernel to give bug reports that narrow down which
codepath is at fault is very useful.
