Yeah we don't use it anymore... but should. There is already a related
ticket for that in the bug tracker.

Done in r18770. Well, we usually don't set svn:ignores property so I
didn't.

Hmm... No :)
The ppc32 and ppc64 files you've seen in freenet07.tgz are binaries for
the wrapper. We aren't bundling libFEC for ppc because its optimizations
are about: "avoid breaking the pipeline" so they are unlikely to
perform as well as they do on x86 which have loooongs pipelines. We
are bundling libNativeThread on PPC (but only for linux as it doesn't
make sense on macos). Well, for libbigi I thought we were bundling
them... I'll have a look.

The idea was to keep symbols and debugging informations here... We
aren't stripping the java jars either.
