Hello Satish and Matthias,

Here's what I've tried so far with PETSc 2.3.2:
      * -1 Patch level 6: HPPA segfaulted with python2.3, took over 150
        minutes with python2.4.
      * -2 Patch level 8, python 2.4: ARM died during checkDynamicLinker
        test; HPPA still took over 150 minutes (m68k dies while
        compiling).
      * -3 Patch level 8, python 2.4, --useThreads 0: HPPA died at start
        of config: "Fatal Python error: PyEval_RestoreThread: NULL
        tstate"; ARM outcome unknown.
