The port of Clarence Chu is rather stable, that means "nearly" as the supported
ports. There is only one problem I saw, that seems to deal with the changes
Kai Petzke did initially for the Linux port. It has to do with the changes,
that where neccessary for getting the postquel-parser compiled with flex rather
than the supported lex.
That problem lets the regression test crash somewhere while scanning(?)
a "~" sign, as far as I could see.
