For x86 platforms I may have a better solution: We could simply fetch a
x86 machine with >=1GHz, >=1GB memory, install VMware on it and then can
run MANY MANY VMware VMs on it, - one for Solaris2.8/x86, one for
Solaris 2.9/x86, one for SuSE Linux, one for Debian Linux, one for
NetBSD, one for FreeBSD and there is still memory left for more VMs.
And we would be able to use the same machine for building binaries for
these platforms, too... :)

Bye,
