It built just fine on m68k, but it does not work. I asked other m68k people
to try it out, but there was no response I remember, so I do not know its a
problem only on my machine, but I think its generic.
Remember the libpci problem? I could not start hacking a workaround, since
it fails before that step now, when starting X, it
breaks/crashes/you-name-it when trying to load the libbitmap module. I
posted the error message on debian-x (for 4.0.1-something?), its still the
same error. Even with glibc2.2, and maybe also gcc-2.95.3. I would check
again with 4.0.2-2 if you release it, but I don't expect any magic
improvements to happen. No answer from Egbert. Looks like a deadlock to me.

I could upload the debs just to please you/get X into testing, but it might
break lots of m68k installations. Or maybe not, perhaps noone is running
woody/testing/unstable/you-name-it on m68k? Shall I upload those debs?
