It shows.  Then again, I have my reservations about the quality of the
code when it was installed.

For example, I just had the pleasure of finding out that HP's thread tests
all rely on a magic pre-built binary becuase they couldn't get the testfile
to build on hpux11.  Of course we don't even have that binary and if we
did, it'd probably be a GPL violation to distribute it.  I'll be disabling
those tests shortly :(

It can't hurt.  Particularly when it's pretty clear that nobody's built/tested
GDB on hpux11 since Jan 2001.

Understood.
