I have this version running.  Email me with particulars and I will see if
I can help.

0.10.0 didn't come with the packages directory.  You will need to copy it
over from an earlier version.  However, once you do that you will probably
run into the same problems I am having.

Not being a real C programmer, it looks like support.c is including some
code that is trying to create it's own functions out of assembly language,
but the assembly language calls that it is using don't exist.  Maybe some
code written for one of the sparc platforms got #included by mistake?  I
really don't know to be honest..
