I rest my case.. No time for debugging this... even if I did know what
I was doing.. I can build 'em, but debugging and writing are not my bag..

The source code to both BOINC itself and the SETI client are provided

Two things..
1. I'm not a coder, and if I run into problems on a NetBSD or non-x86
platform, I'm not going to know what to do about it.
2. Time. Tuesday I go in for surgery to remove my gallbladder. The week
after that is going to be spent recovering from that. Then it's back to
work with me so I don't lose my business.
Back in the day, if you needed a client for the "old" system (which
works great, IMHO) and you asked here, someone on the project would get
it done, assuming they had access to the hardware on which to do the
compile. (Guess that's why I never found a client for my DECstation
5000/200.) I suppose those on the SETI project are busy, too, so that's
understandable, now, but that doesn't change the fact that I'm not going
to be able to go full-speed ahead like I have been for the last 5+
years.... Bits of my farm will fall off due to lack of support.. and
that's just a sad thing.
