Hi,

Khoros (1.05) is running under BSDI (beta). 

I would say it is a pretty clean port.

This included separating out i386 ( == sysV) dependencies, 
using f2c for the fortran part, replacing all missing math functions
with libfn (from netlib) (btw. libfn would allow to create any 
function  you could think of), and the most tough part was making the 
parser work with flex's multiple buffer mechanism.

I have the changes as a tar file (including the libfn stuff). 

\Magnus
