This isn't strictly related, but porting gdome2 to an alien platform really
isn't as hard as it might seem. I ported gdome2 to RISC OS in about 10
hours, most of which was spent porting glib. The bits that couldn't be made
to compile immediately in glib (because of platform incompatibilities, such
as threading, etc) were just omitted entirely. I've not managed to do much
more than run the tests as yet, but hope to build upon what I presently
have soon.
