2.4 is more or less hosed. I don't plan to fix it, no time. 2.6
boots UP and seems to work as well as SuperSPARC given the limited
testing I've done so far. It may be possible later to backport
whatever changes are made in 2.6, but frankly I don't recommend to use
2.4. If you want to help development, use 2.6. If you need first
rate stability, use 2.2.
