Re: gnubol: Linux on S/390

[Tim Josling <tej@melbpc.org.au>]

Michael,
Go for it. Linux on 390 would show up any big-endian issues so it
would be good. Later on I would like to have a go at supporting
the packed decimal instructions on the 390. I was an IMS system
programmer for many years (even used some BMC products - the ones
we could afford),
