Well, I do have a script that expects the current format, but I'm
probably the only one, and it's not like it's hard to change. The
unadulterated prtdiag info is interesting in that it contains what I
assume is the cache size. I think the unadulterated prtdiag output is
my first choice, and fully backwards compatible my second.
