For the MLX system, I think that should be ok.  Owen ran into some issues
on the other systems when we tried to upgrade to 90, and rolled back to 87
for the time being.  Ideally, we're still aiming to get everyone to a
common ground, so we're not having to maintain configurations for multiple
versions of DTS and TRex.

Cheers,
Lincoln
