So that is a Ricoh driver, one of the few that was supposed to benefit
from bounce buffers.

Except that if you actually turned it on:

so it doesn't have enough memory to use these bounce buffers
anyway.

I'm now feel it was the right thing to delete them.

I assume the problem doesn't appear in later -rc:s am I right?
