Still it pollutes the name space for tools like ctags. Currently there
is no other driver that provides "set_device" but there are symbol names
that are used for different purposes and that's annoying. Right, for
global names that might even be used from other source files, this is
worse. But IMHO it's still annoying enough in cases like this to not do
it.

Best regards
Uwe
