My only concern is that it's gentoo, not just linux. I know that for a 
couple of my other open source projects I usually don't spend too 
long debugging bizarrely broken apparent bugs, because it ends up 
being some strange build flag or some such on the gentoo box in 
question. On the other hand, this box is unlikely to have been built 
with a selection of gcc flags that Neal just selected randomly from 
the gcc manual <wink>  so it's probably going to be better than that.

Anyone else have an opinion on the ease of installation for the 
various BSDs? Last time I tried one (which was several years ago) it 
was Not Very Good.
