It's limping along.  We've managed to run a few programs successfully.

I think the next step is actually to get the test suite to compile & build
so we can see what functionally isn't working yet.

Pierre and Daniel, we could use some guidance on how to approach this.  The
tests have quite a few unguarded includes of mach header files, uses of
mach types, and includes of Foundation.  How would you like this porting to
proceed?  Hubertus has already done some initial poking at it, but getting
direction on the intended outcome would be very helpful.

thanks,
