So, after thinking about it some more, I've changed my minde about the
whole thing again. The impact is quite contained because there weren't a
lot of systems that had ram based at 0. I'm going to commit this patch,
but I'll include a note in the commit text that if it causes trouble for
anyone that they should yell and I'll revert it. I don't think it will
though.
