Last time this was asked somebody said that most of the autobuilders
don't target non-free, although someone seems to be building trn4
manually for alpha anyway. Can I get a login on an arm and an m68k box
to build trn4 there too?
In the particular case of trn, I tried to build it for sparc earlier
today and filed a bug because it won't build with newer glibc (another
<sys/time.h> problem).
