Has anyone ported RU-CAP2 for apollo's. We've yanked the latest
binaries off rutyers, and it is obvious that it won't go
through quite as it is, although I hope the changes will not be
monumental. I know of, already:

1) The configuration script doesn't work for Apollos [ I wish
the people who write this would use /lib/libc (or is it
/lib/clib, I always forget) if it exists, and save us having to
do these fixes. ]

2) The byte swap info has to be added - obviously the same as
other 68000 machines like Sun's.

However, I'd be grateful from hearing from anyone who has got
it to work on 10.? - especially if there is a patch file out
there somewhere. I suppose if anyone has tried and failed, that
would be useful too.
