Jeff,

Can we also combine mutiple segments from different processors or is it
a one-sy two-sy king of affair?  If so, we're there, it just becomes a
linking option.

I am building the RPM for Ute Linux with 2.4.0-10 and right now, I have
to do what RedHat does, and create the /config "directory from hell"
with two dosen .config files and create multiple RPMs for each kernel
(i.e. i586, .i686).  It's too convoluted and customers hate it.
