Hi Harold,
	I managed to get it all worked out. I basically ripped the entire
/usr/share/ directory from my i386 box and dumped it in the NFS share in
the right spot for the Dreamcast. All seems to be going well.
	I'm compiling screen-3.9.11 at the moment and all appears to be
going well.

Thanks,
Josh
