Ship it!


All that NXM support could probably go away at some point. We should also 
consider just eliminating SE-mode Tru64 support. I'm not sure anything uses it, 
and if so, it's probably stuff that people shouldn't be using anymore anyway.

Of course, I'm sure spme people named Andreas would say that that sentiment 
applies to Alpha support on the whole... but I think the overhead of 
maintaining Alpha Linux support is pretty low, at least comparable to some of 
the Tru64 stuff, in terms of wonky things that aren't hidden away in their own 
source files. Though I haven't looked at the code in a while so I could be 
wrong.
