I'm mostly sparc based but I am trying to keep my bits arch-neutral. If 
you have a working NVidia + Solaris setup, that's interesting as you will 
be able to test the bits I won't (I don't have a PC with NVidia graphics 
running Solaris at this time, they all run Linux).

Ok, check the recent checkouts, you shouldn't need to add any new #ifdef.. 
Tell me if I broke something.. I'm having a lot of trouble with LCC on 
sparc at this time so if it works fine on i386, that's a good sign.
Oh and btw, I thought it was recommended by SUN to use "__sun", not "__sun__".

That'd be great to have them on-board.. I have both an sb2k+XVR-1000 and 
an sb150+XVR-600 but any other coder/debugger/tester will be welcomed.. :)
