No, it doesn't.  At this point with the popularity of HDMI we had put
effort into that, and put DP off until later after we knock off some
more high priority stuff (finally getting a memory manager merged, for
example).

I think someone could work from the public specs and get it working,
modulo potential surprises that could be found by looking at what the
video bios does.
