I have to admit that I didn't see the point at the first time I read
this.  But, hey, MachTen runs on all (at least they claim) Mac models,
so the owners of Mac models that are not supported by MacBSD at the
moment could commit the development!

IIvx, IIsi and other FPU-less or splitted-memory-mapped models' owners
should consider this...

(sorry this does not have much substantial message but I couldn't just
sit & watch this potentially big leap of development force was being
forgotten without any responces...)
