Ann: Stackless 2.2.1 on PowerPC

[Christian Tismer]

Announcement:

Stackless Python Works on PowerPC.

The PPC support was much simpler to implement than expected.
It was helpful to look into the PPC switch implementation
of the ICON language.
Thanks to Just van Rossum for giving me access to his machine.
Thanks to Armin Rigo for showing me the tricks for x86-unix.

There is still no installer available, this is at alpha
level. In case you want to build your own Stackless,
check out the module stackless from
:pserver:anonymous@tismer.com:/home/cvs

have fun - chris
