Hello,

I am running a sparcstation 5 and was wondering about this the other
day; are the binaries found on the website compiled for the v7
processors?  CFLAGS = -0?  I guess more generally how do you find out
what the compile flags are for a particular architecture?

If the above is true, did doing this make any noticable difference to
the speed of things like ssh?  If so I might put the p4 to some good use
:)

cheers,

- Lachlan
