Slow. I first started off with the original (HP-UX) sources. I just
recently received the Linux patches, which is a big help. Most
big-endian and little-endian stuff is already there. Getting the FreeBSD
port from that should not be a big problem. Unfortunately, it's more a
matter of having way too little time and energy...

As for help -- impossible. The agreement is personal and short-term (ie
I have to return the sources and destroy any copies of it). Technically
speaking, I can't even send beta-versions around for people to test. The
distribution aspects still have to be discussed [note to self: bug the
guys again...]
