Yep, arm is no problem - was a typo. For sparc we will use normal jit as a
jit3 merge from pocketlinux would be a too big patch for 1.1.6 I assume.

And we should first get 1.1.6 as it is into testing ...

@Arnaud: I have uploaded a new kaffe revision which should fix the sparc,
          arm and mips issue. If you think its ÒK it can be uploaded.
          I wanted to wait for m68k first - however it seems kaffe builds
          already for 2 days on m68k without and end ...
