Well, so I just got this mail to bug-sipb indicating a bug in xrn
for Linux, and that brought up a strange question:
	do we officialy support programs for NetBSD and Linux
to the same degree as other architectures in the SIPB locker?
This might seem silly, but it does mean that program maintainers
are going to have to deal with not-really-athena machines that
they may not be that familiar with. Even worse, we might get
people expecting us to help configure the program to run in
some other manner on their machine or such?

	Do we possibly want to give these operating systems
the same disclaimer as that in the outland locker? (or some-such
to the effect that we are doing our best to support said program,
but can't guarantee anything?)
