I just checked out the latest CVS again and tried compiling under
Linux/SPARC -- the problem this time was that ./configure (with
whatever parameters) didn't fit in the 16MB RAM --> segmentation
fault! Mind you, this thing was built in 1988.

So, for the time being, I can't do much more hacking on this, and I
haven't got access to other Linux/SPARC machines right now. (Maybe
SourceForge or Debian have some in their farms, but I haven't
checked.)

Anyone else with Linux/SPARC out there who would like to do some
testing?
