*** Notes specific to am-utils version 6.0a3:

- New tested ports (configures, compiles, and runs):

	i386-unknown-freebsd2.2

- New ports (configures and compiles correctly, not tested):

	rs6000-ibm-aix3.2.5
	rs6000-ibm-aix4.1.5.0

- More am-utils programs ported to all existing platforms: hlfsd, fsinfo,
mk-amd-map, and fixmount.

- Shared libraries: a new configure option --enable-shared will build a
shared libamu.so, link applications with it, and use it.  Reduces binary
sizes by 20-30%.  This is the first step towards loadable modules, as many
changes had to be done to be able to compile and use PIC code.  This is code
that obviously needs to be generalized to be able to build shared libraries
on many other platforms.  It was only tested on Solaris 5.5.1.

- the file INSTALL contains the latest compatibility table of which
platforms am-utils configures, compiles and runs on.

- Trimmed down the size of the configure script.  Some tests that are not
used anywhere were removed.


*** Notes specific to am-utils version 6.0a2:

- New ports (configures and compiles correctly, not tested):

	i386-pc-bsdi2.1
	hppa1.1-hp-hpux9.01
	hppa1.1-hp-hpux10.20

- new configure options:

	--enable-cppflags[=ARG]
		configure/compile with ARG (-I) preprocessor flags
	--enable-libs[=ARG]
		configure/compile with ARG (-L/-l) library flags

- filesystem, mount table entries, and mount type tests can now look in
/lib/modules and /proc/filesystems for statically/dyadically loadable kernel
modules (linux)

- prefer vfat over msdos/pc/etc filesystem for PCFS.

- moved all fixed headers to include/am_defs.  Left only #define/#undef
entries in aux/acconfig.h.

- make more sense of systems that have full, partial, or no NFS protocol
headers.

- minor fixes for NetBSD (untested platform).

- hesiod map fixed.

- buildall -D: new option to run even stricter developer options.

- lots of other bugs fixed (see ChangeLog).


*** Notes specific to am-utils version 6.0a1:

I have it configure and build correctly for the following systems:

	i386-pc-solaris2.5.1
	i386-unknown-freebsd2.1.0
	mips-sgi-irix6.2
	sparc-sun-solaris2.5.1
	sparc-sun-sunos4.1.3

Amq, wire-test, and "amd -v" work on all of the above.  A real running amd
was only tested and confirmed working on

	i386-pc-solaris2.5.1
	sparc-sun-solaris2.5.1

Many things are still missing: options, features, etc.  But for now, let's
concentrate on getting the basic functionality working on the more popular
systems.
