AFAIR, /usr/lib/hotplug/firmware was used by the legacy /etc/hotplug scripts.
This means it was used by distributions with linux-2.4 kernels or
early linux-2.6 installations where udev only began.

So we talk about an era up-to RHEL-4.x which isn't supported by DAHDI anyway.

+1 to throwing it down the history chute.
