We hope and believe they are adequate for the first test cycle. See
my email from before.
>Where's m68k 2.2.13? Or is 2.2.12 okay for m68k?
I believe m68k does need 2.2.13, but I'm not totally sure. Hopefully
the m68k porter will have a version up soon. Unfortunately, building
on m68k is a bit more of a manual process than on most other arches.

That's a good question. I myself have pestered the arm list with
little to no results. I believe that ARM is not yet release quality
-- maybe they can prove me wrong, I don't know. I wish I could answer
this question but I don't have ARM, don't know anyone that has arm,
and can only testify on my experiences and my guesses. No offense,
please.
