[ARMedslack] ARM Slackware on the BeagleBoard

[John Oyler]

I've had some success compiling and building packages (natively). Would you want them for the extras for arm slack? I'd happily upload them.

So far (and they work, I've tested) I have PostgreSQL 8.4.4, the watchdog daemon, and wvstreams.
