Well, originally that was the plan John Marvin had but I don't think
he's had time to work on the missing kernel support (ioctl calls for
gfx card drivers). If someone wants to try it and report what's missing,
we might find time to get it working peice meal.  In general, HPUX 32-bit
SOM binary support is in place though no one is regularly testing it.
