I seem to recall that the kernel mmap implementation on hppa is somewhat
unique.
I don't recall anything, Kyle?
This came up with respect to the GCC PCH implementation for parisc. See
comments in host-hpux.h. At the moment, we do have a PCH related bug.

Luk,
There is no desire to trim working architectures.
It's very easy to tell there is nothing wrong when you don't have to
deal with unreliable build daemons, endless discussions but no visible
progress (except for java support) and complaints from DSA, package
maintainers and others.

The potato pcmcia package (3.1.20) does not work with the 2.2.18pre
kernels. We need to either patch it or use the one from woody. Seems
like using the woody one would make more sense at this point...
I'll go ahead and build the potato PCMCIA packages as NMUs so we can at
least test boot-floppies.

I will do this tomorrow night unless someone beats me to it.
