Can my environments be "esoteric" enough ?

- Sun Solaris 2.6 on Sparc
- Debian Linux 3.0 (Woody) on Alpha
- Cygwin, if you don't have already tested on it

Some particular thing to do, or bootstrap and my standard configure will be
enough ?

Let me to know on what of my platforms I should test it.

Regards

Guido
