Hadn't really approacted that yet ... It'll probably be hard to do 
without proper documentation... You could probably get away with looking 
at header files exported to userland under Solaris or SunOS.  At least 
you could probably get the register layout, and other hints.  (Header 
files are OK ... they just describe an interface :-)

Great to hear!  Yes, Aaron and Paul have done a _wonderful_ job with the 
sun4m support!
