I just did a cvs update from the repo and, starting from a clean check
out did the bootstrap, configure, make distcheck, etc, and all worked
as expected and seems to have built a working binary.  So, I think I'm
good to go on FreeBSD.

Ted, if you can get a chance to verify that the Linux build is ready I
think that we are good for laying down the 4.2.0 tag.  Would you mind
doing the honors - you've done them all so far :-) Once that's there,
we should be able to each roll our own installs for Windows, Linux,
and FreeBSD respectively.

Also, just FYI, I've recently obtained an Apple eMac running MacOS X.
I have it on my list to port AVRDUDE to that platform.  Folks using
serial programmers should be able to make use of AVRDUDE there by
using a USB<->RS232 converter, but I'll need to investigate that a
little.  I can't guarantee when I'll have anything - even though MacOS
X has quite a few Unix underpinnings, I'm not really familiar yet with
the mechanics of getting software installed in a Mac-like fashion (I'm
pretty much a MacOS newbie).  Something to look forward to, anyway.

Cheers,
-Brian
