All of these are interesting to help others decide whether their
particular machine is supported. For my narrow purposes of documenting
which kinds of platforms are supported for the upcoming release, I'm
focused on processor/OS combinations. So the following already seem to
be covered:

MIPS/IRIX (32 bit compilation only- try 64 bit compilation?)
Alpha/Linux
Alpha/Tru64
Sparc/Solaris
Sparc/Linux
x86/NetBSD (need all other NetBSD architectures!)
x86/OpenBSD (need all other archs!)

If you have other combinations (I've forgotten what NeXT is; we need 68k
and 88k architectures tested; our NetBSD/68k guy no longer has that
machine) they would be particularly helpful.

TIA
