Somewhat.  I have a box that has one of those overdrive chips in it, but
it still claims to be a 486-class machine.  It runs current, however, and
not stable.  Actually, I have two of those machines.  One is running a
12 hour old -current.  The other is running a 4.0-current from 10/24/99.

I'll try upgrading the oldest machine to -stable and doing a "make world"
and see what happens.  This may take most of the week, since a make world
takes forever on one these machines, and my free time to check up on this is
very limited.  If anyone else has a true 486 running -stable and wants
to follow up on this, feel free.

-Mike
