Cool, that makes good sense. Patrick, are you starting the gcc 4 port on 
Power?   I know the focus on your side is intel, but it would be good to 
get the fixes for the new compiler in there before dealign with the x86 
issues. 

b.t.w.  Chris Matthews from victoria has been working with Jonathan to 
extract the clustered object services from K42 to make them generally 
useful for writting system software, as part of that they should be 
getting it all working on x86 as well.  We may be porting other components 
of k42 to x86 for other research experiments, so please post your 
experiences regularly.
