  We're still working on flash 9 support, so you'd have to keep waiting 
anyway...

  Well it did once, but that was 2 years ago. While I have huge 
experience with HPUX, why bother ? It's mostly a dead OS. Same for AIX. 
I've lost access to the RS6000 I used then, but why bother ? Even IBM 
prefers Linux these days.

  Nothing we do to Gnash would keep it from running on those platforms, 
but to really support them would take somebody with the hardware to 
check occasionally.
