  yes, me.
  Adam got the code to the point of compiling, and booting over
ethernet, (but no /sbin/init). I'm still trying to put the
cross-development system together right. (Had a thesis to finish) 
  Build BSD make was easy. 
  Building GCC was okay. 
  I'm rather worried about subtle differences between Sun a.out format
and BSD a.out format. (Sun is already network order, so that problem
doesn't arise) 

  More later this evening, from home.
