    1.0RC4 is "current."

    It built for me on a SuSE 7.3 box with no glitchen at all (I didn't
    even know I had a SuSE box here in the lab until today -- damned
    things pop up like mushrooms after a rain and aren't anywhere near as
    tasty).

            imod xforms-work/xforms-1.0RC4> uname -a
            Linux imod 2.4.10-4GB #1 Fri Sep 28 17:20:21 GMT 2001 i686 unknown

    The only possible gotcha is that it seems I left

            #define Solaris64Bit YES

    in the top level `Imakefile'.

    Try turning that off, that is

            #define Solaris64Bit NO

    and see what happens. The theory says that under anything but Solaris
    it should make no difference but that's theory and we're dealing with
    practice. :-) I'll make appropriate ifdef's in the future to prevent
    this from inadvertently happening.

    BTW, I'm hoping to polish off RC5 sometime today, assuming that there
    are no intervening crises, and from there go to a full up official
    V1.0. Stay tuned.
