     Just as an aside, Linux ports to Merced were begun some time back.
A few months ago, I watched someone boot an early Linux port on a laptop
running a software Merced emulator.  While the Linux port was only
functional enough to run ps, ls, and a few other commands, I thought it
ran surprisingly fast for a software emulator.  I didn't do any timings,
though.
