(ppbus/*.c is apparently arch-dependent because it includes : files from i386/isa.) But there is no arch-independent isa include files in the tree right now, so I wouldn't count that against the ppbus code just yet. I suspect that in the future there will be a-i versions of these files as the Alpha project gets rolling. Warner
