IIRC the VGA cards on non-x86 machines contain ROMs too, some (PPC?
Alpha?) machine had a simple x86 emulator just to run the ROM code.
Then you could enable the VGA ROM loading unconditionally. So maybe
the patch isn't necessary?

Otherwise you could add two files without macros, then the files can
be compiled just once.
