I am authorized to claim that the ITUGLIB team (including myself) can
support this effort for the following config targets:
    NONSTOP_KERNEL:[HJ]*:*:NSE* # H- or J-Series, IA64
    NONSTOP_KERNEL:L*:*:NSX*) # x86-64

Our current port is current with 1.0.2n with platform mods. I have posted
such to the 5043 pull discussion and can create a pull request with our
modifications for review.

Randall
