Can you please check if the minimals work OK now?

Taco has fixed quite some compilation bugs recently thanks to all the
people who reported all the possible and impossible compilation issues
on almost every single platform that existed :) :)

(So I guess that we lost you for Open Solaris now? :)

One more question for the other two FreeBSD-ers: we now have
      i*86) platform="freebsd" ;;
      x86_64) platform="freebsd" ;;
      amd64) platform="freebsd-amd64" ;;
Where does x86_64 belong? To the first or to the second group? Should
freebsd alone be renamed or is it ok to leave only freebsd there?

Just send me the desired username/password.

PS: Hans, can you please update mtx-update.lua (["freebsd-amd64"] =
"freebsd-amd64") and mtxrun.lua?

        elseif name == "freebsd" then
            local architecture = os.arch()
            if architecture:find("amd64") then
                return "freebsd-amd64"
            else --if architecture == 'i386' or 'x86_64': not sure about x86_64
                return "freebsd"
            end
        end
