I've updated http://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/Tuples with lots more information such as links to external ABI specs where I could find them. I based this on Jonathan Nieder's initial email (thanks!) and filled in from there. For the non-Linux ports a bit more help would be useful; I don't know where the Hurd/kFreeBSD ports are specified externally, if indeed they are at all. Review/comments/corrections welcome. I hope this helps with what you're looking for, Matthias? -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK. st...@einval.com "It's actually quite entertaining to watch ag129 prop his foot up on the desk so he can get a better aim."
