I probably wont be able to set up any more buildds until I get aranym

I'm suprised that network I/O was that slow; using distcc (especially
with -j2 options passed to dpkg-buildpackage) have drastically sped up
builds; the files themselves are small, usually a few kilobytes round

YMMV.

QEMU can emulate a coldfire processor. I'm looking into the feasibility
of using qemu to kickstart the coldfire port.

I personally agree that combining the ports together is a bad idea; no
arguement towards the other has managed to sway me; FreeMiNT OS required
an emualator layer running under its kernel and still required patching
to be usable on Coldfire.
I also disagree that coldfire as a seperate port would

I agree with Roman. Even if it was possible to get a hybrid port to work,

Maybe this is a stupid question (and maybe unrelated), but how does

Reading up on the changes made to GCC for gnu99/c99, I've been researching
workarounds and such, and I may have hit paydirt;GCC has an option which
causes the code to use the gnu89 linkage over the current gnu99 while still
allowing the code extensions of gnu99.
In other words, it will allow c99/g

On m68k, gnu99 mode doesn't work correctly out of the box due to our

No, no binaries from lenny will be going back into unstable to make
