Yes, although the arm machine I have (Acorn RiscPC 600) is equiped with an
ARM610 processor, while Corel's boxes have a StrongARM, but there is a
binary compatibility between those 2 processors (like between i386 and
i586 for example).
The last stop stopper for releasing my ARM .debs is that the development
environment on ARM still doesn't support ELF completly (ELF pic code is
currently missing) but this should hopefully be fixed by the end of the
month.
