Hi Igor,

Thanks so much for getting the auto-builds going.
This will help greatly with keeping the codebase
"real" (i.e. identifying patches which break the build).

I've been waiting on the sidelines for an official
release of the new VM before taking it for a spin;
our code still expects the 3.10-4 VM.

So do the new VMs require a x86 CPU? -- we've been
running on SPARC under Solaris.  If so, then a final
release of the "traditional" VM would be wonderful.
