Jan,

Is part of HW2 to successfully get this all to work or just to attempt 
and document experiences? I'm having a heck of a hard time getting even 
GCC to compile on Fedora and I haven't even moved onto the other 
instances yet. I've fixed 2 compilation errors so far but now there's a 
third.

I've completed the native pacakge management part and I'm doing the 
pkg_src piece but wanted to know how long I should keep trying to get 
GCC to compile before moving on to the other packages and instances???
