[bf1942] Linux server status update 2003-05-05

[Fredriksson, Andreas]

Roland,
that might be a good idea for future releases (1.x) but for now I'm
going to focus on putting out a binary that works for the majority
of users. There will be two binaries for 1.4, one dynamic and one
static. The one to run is automatically selected by a small shell
scripts that runs ldd over the dynamic binary and then decides
which version to symlink to before starting the server.

Adding AMD/Intel versions at this point would bring the executable
count up to four, and I simply don't have time to compile and test
all those versions right now :-)

Regards,
Andreas
