    Sorry to meddle in the discussion here but just a quick question:
   Can we only use sarek target with GEMS? Is sunfire not compatible
   (As far as I know it is also a Sun/SPARC machine (but it simulates
   UltraSPARC II instead of UltraSPARC III or IV) ?
   I was using sunfire target and so far everything seems to work fine.
   However, I have not used opal yet. Would it be a problem if I try to
   use opal with sunfire target?

      Thanks,
