Do you check it on FreeBSD at least?

I used to, but not anymore, because I no longer have an account on a
FreeBSD machine.

I have succeded in building todays CVS version on NetBSD with
following changes:

--- Makefile.in.orig 2008-05-02 13:21:26.000000000 +0400
+++ Makefile.in 2008-05-02 13:27:49.000000000 +0400

sleep 1 #should make hpux-workaround unnecessary

$(FORTH_GEN_ENGINE_FAST): prim-fast.b prims2x.fs
- GFORTH="$(FORTHP)" $(srcdir)/gfgen -fast
+ GFORTH="$(PREFORTH)" $(srcdir)/gfgen -fast

$(FORTH_GEN_ENGINE): prim.b prims2x.fs
GFORTH="$(PREFORTH)" $(srcdir)/gfgen

But I still don't know, what is the purpose of libltdl.

And there's another problem: gforth spits garbage to the terminal,
for instance, I see "bye^[[3Dbye^[[3Dbye" on exit. I.e. gforth
doesn't handle terminal output correctly. Could this be fixed?
