Last time I tried it wouldn't work (I think it attempts to use linked
libraries, something not supported yet)

Something was released recently that was a patch on the source to allow a
16 bit beep.

To the best of my knowledge the code is already there, how well tested I
don't know, depends whether the kernel team have had their hands on a
hydra yet.

I can't say whether mudOS compiles, I can say that CD LPmuds (v CD.04.03
and CD.04.05) compile with 2.7.2.1 p1 on the SA, (you have to use yacc
though, bison seems to give up)  I can provide a set for it if people are
desperate to run a mud.
