We are in the middle of a great deal of ports churn for various reasons. I have asked for some help from various port maintainers to fix the problems. However, not everyone has access to a sparc64 machine for testing. Your best bet ATM may be to try the packages from 7.1R -- but even that's a gamble. mcl
