	Hello,

	with the current code in experimental CVS, the GL841 cannot work. It
is detected but get stuck early. I don't know for other source repositories.
At least Gerhard Jaeger and Philipp Schmid have expressed interest on this
list to get it work. Maybe they could give some hints on how they are
progressing ?
