ASR9001, ASR1000-something (many models, 1RU/2RU, depending on ports), MX204

That the 6500BU decided to build an "XL" version of the 6T with only
1M FIB entries is, indeed, very annoying.  Either declare the platform
dead and be done with it, or build new and interesting functionality
with proper FIB size.  Or declare it "for DC only!" and do not even
offer an "XL" sup...
