Just wondering, but it might work on Alpha. (which ran a native version of 
NT4.0) (NOTE: this is speculation) I may mess around with it in a few days. 
(Hope NTFS support is still in the kernel!) 

Aside: there seems to be an issue with the realplayer .sos on alphas, which I 
haven't looked into much. 
Is there any 32-bit centric (or x86-centric) code in there that would prevent 
this?

Sorry if these are really stupid questions.
