Many thanks for your hard work on Jails!!
I am planning to test 7-STABLE in next few days.
Can you explain more details about "32bit compat on 64bit, jail v1 
compat, .."?
Is it possible to run 32bit jail in 64bit host and build & run 32bit 
ports (marked as i386 only) in it? What is needet to setup 32bit jail in 
64bit host?

Thanks again
