ARCHITECTURES SUPPORTED
-----------------------
-Currently, x86 (i386, i486, i586, i686), x86 64-bit, PowerPC 32/64, S390, S390x,
-ARM, Alpha, ia64 and Sparcv9 32/64 are supported. Only tested on Linux so
-far, but should theoretically work on other operating systems.
+Currently, Linux x86 (i386, i486, i586, i686), x86 64-bit, PowerPC 32/64,
+S390, S390x, ARM, Alpha, ia64 and Sparcv9 32/64 are supported. Tested on
+Linux, FreeBSD 8.2/9.0, and Cygwin. Should also work on: Android, NetBSD 5,
+OpenBSD, Darwin (more testing needed before claiming support for these OS).
-ARM depends on running a Linux kernel 2.6.15 or better, GCC 4.4 or better.
