Technical review requested

All.

I have committed a document to CVS call portable-programming.xml, which
is in response to one of Telsa's recent bug filings. This document is
supposed to provide enough information that a moderately knowledgable
GNOME developer could use it to make their code more portable. In
particular, I have tried to mention some of the common problems that are
mentioned in bugzilla, on mailing lists, and on IRC.

Could any developers who have a spare few moments have a read through
it, please do so and send me any comments you may have.

My experience with developing on platforms other than Linux/x86 is
pretty limited, so a lot of the stuff in the document is hearsay and
it's possible I have lost some accuracy in the translation.

The document is in the gnome-devel-docs module, under
articles/portable-programming/C/. If you don't like reading the raw XML,
the simplest thing to do is to:

	mkdir html
	xsltproc -o html/ portable-programming.xml

and you should get a bunch of HTML files in the html directory.

Thanks in advance,
Malcolm
