Seems I'm stuck then. Newer versions of the OS won't run on this
PowerBook according to specification. So current versions of CM3
aren't possible anymore, too...

It seems that it isn't possible anymore to use a computer that is
older than two years to run any medium to large-size current
software :-(

The upgrade script for Linux just died with

=== package m3-sys/cm3 ===
  +++ cm3 -build  -DROOT='/home/wagner/work/cm3'  && cm3 -ship  
-DROOT='/home/wagner/work/cm3'  +++
--- building in LINUXLIBC6 ---

ignoring ../src/m3overrides

  -> linking cm3
/usr/local/cm3/pkg/libm3/LINUXLIBC6/libm3.a(FSPosix.mo): In function  
`FS__SetModificationTime':
/home/wagner/work/cm3/m3-libs/libm3/LINUXLIBC6/FSPosix.m3:348:  
undefined reference to `__wrap_utimes'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
Fatal Error: package build failed

on birch.elegosoft.com.

So the only thing I've succeeded in today is building a bootstrap
for FreeBSD 6.3.
