  Has anyone got a list of what is needed to run Solaris/x86 binaries
under NetBSD's SVR4 emulation? I specifically want to run GraphicVue (which I
don't yet have a demo of) I expect that I need a Solaris/x86 license
to get those libraries, right?

  Does anyone have any other suggestions for project management software that
will on NetBSD/i386? Less good is NetBSD/sparc.
