Hi Everybody,

I'm pleased to annouce the port for NCR MP-RAS 3.x (i386/univel_svr4).

In order to compile kaffe, you need GCC, GNU as and GNU make.  You can find
precompiled binaries at http://ncrinfo.ncr.com/pub/contrib/svr4/GNU.


Kaffe Changes:

. jit/branche.h define somes contants like ``bn'', but a system include
  (aka sys/vnode.h) have ``bn'' as the name of a function parameter,
  change #defines to enums.

. Page 0 (aka address in range [0, 0x1000[) have readable access,
  so NullPointerException can't retreive the PC of the current method,
  remap it as PROT_NONE.


Autoconf changes:

. Need the library ``mw'' with the library ``m''.

. Need nsl library, but gethostbyname() is not in, add a check with
  gethostname().
