Forgive my admittedly blunt tactics - I want to see SUSE on the list
before we release, and time was short - that's all. If it wasn't for
RC5, no port report would be listed in the docs in the final
release.... It's better to have a SUSE contact support the port than
for me to report it.

I should note here also that SGI have replied "No" to my request for
help (or access) with porting PostgreSQL onto the latest version of
IRIX...

Anyone got access to an HP/UX development system?
