No, but I already wrote some patches for this, and added them to devel/nspr. I was just waiting for you to bug me before adding them to mozilla itself ;-). > - Is ia64 support present in the mozilla tree? Yes. The big challenge is to port the xpcom code to FreeBSD/ia64. Take a look at some of the Sparc64 patches in files/ to see what you're up against. This will require some ia64 assembly. Fortunately, I think there are already some Linux ports. > - Do we have a better chance porting 1.4b? 1.3.1 and 1.4b should be about the same.
