Hi!

Just a short heads-up. I have updated the version of qemu-m68k on the
four qemu buildds (vs90~vs93) to use Lauren's master-dev branch [1],
git revision is 5e79823. I have added two patches from me to add the
socket calls 19 and 20 plus update the m68k syscall table for Linux
4.4 which are going to be merged qemu upstream soon.

I have also started reporting issues to the qemu-m68k tracker on
github [2]. If you find anything which appears to be a qemu
bug, please report it there.

I have recently tried to bootstrap a current ghc version for m68k
by cross-compiling it which failed because ghc produces C code
which is not 100% standard-compliant and therefore segfaults on
m68k due to the register design which has separate registers
for addresses and data values [3]. It's still not 100% clear
though how to fix this issue. If anyone wants to help, please
go ahead.

Cheers,
Adrian
