of course but it will give us an i386 static binary and not a native
amd64 dynamically linked one. That's what I had thought of.. s.th.
like

bz at noc:~> file /usr/local/bin/cvsup
/usr/local/bin/cvsup: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, AMD x86-64, \
	version 1 (FreeBSD), for FreeBSD 5.0.2, \
	dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped

someone (you?) had a ezm3 and cvsup prepared for that and it works
like a charm from what I can tell using above cvsup and running cvsupd
and with my patch even compression works fine.
