That's a great idea... it'd be nice to have a summary not just of what
ports are working, but what features work (or don't work) and what ports
are in progress, and who's working on them.
Personally I've been testing with Linux/Alpha, Linux/x86 and Win32. 
Status is roughly:
Platform Version Status GC threads interpreter
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Linux/x86 2.95.1 working boehm posix no
Linux/x86 snapshot builds boehm posix yes
Linux/Alpha 2.95.1 working boehm posix no
Win32 snapshot builds no[1] win32 maybe[2]
[1] - Boehm is ported to Win32, I have successfully built it for libgcj
but gctest does not yet succeed
[2] - I have partial support for Win32 in libffi but have not yet tested
the interpreter
What do you think of this format?
