Hello,

It has been very quiet about this subject, hasn't it? I can give it a
go tonight after work. Didn't have much spare time during the weekend.

Maybe it should have been posted on sparc64, rather than sparc, but I
guess there are more people than me who are subscribed to both. Maybe I
am one of the few using a sparc64 with cg6? I am very happy for continued
support though.

Regards,
Christer
