Head doesn't build yet on anyone's -- when it does, we will very much
appreciate you trying it under Mandrake, as it's *hoped* that the cross
compile tricks being pulled will make it buildable on any linux PC.

Stable should build, but you need to tell cvs that's the tag you want to 
pull down.  And that's -should build- for a debian/woody environment; 
the build seems to be touchy about glibc versions and mild things like 
ldconfig being on the path (hint, add /sbin to path before starting).  

if your Mandrake kit has glibc 2.3 then stable can't work for you.
(That's the crux of the message at versions.html)

If you're willing to poke around and experiment a little with it,
welcome aboard - we're not all dark arcanum experts either.
