Hmm, I started out with sarge testing on my arm systems, so I never did
a woody to sarge upgrade.

I know arm did have a problem testing this given how few systems you
could actually install woody on with an official debian kernel.  Since
very few people had one of those systems around, testing the upgrade has
not been easy.

I do seem to recall there is something in the sarge release notes (or
was supposed to be) about how to upgrade arm from woody to sarge involving
getting a new kernel first, since something important changed.  I
remember that happens for sure on mips, and also happens on true i386
machines (since sarge's libc requried 486 instructions, so the new
kernel emulates the few missing instructions on i386 systems).
