Mach4 is available at jaguar.cs.utah.edu:/flexmach
WWW page at http://www.cs.utah.edu/projects/flexmach/mach4-proj.html

There is a pointer to the lites page from there.
I believe the latest distribution may be broken for UFS.  UK02p8.
Remy Card probably knows for sure.  The patch was sinple but I don't
remember what it was.  It is probably in the mail archive.

If it is going to drop officially, soon.  It is probably worth waiting
just to get compatibility and build info.
