 I don't have an amd64 machine to test this. And I haven't looked at the ARCH
 issues, since David seems to have work in this area.
 
 I like to incorporate at least John's patch into my linux-mega-patch. If your
 proposal is orthogonal to David's work I can integrate it into my mega patch
 (which is supposed to get a test run on the ports build cluster) too. I
 assume it works for you.
 
 Bye,
 Alexander.

 Windle shook his head sadly. Five exclamation marks, the sure sign of an
 insane mind.
