Hi!

I am very impressed by last version - it works really out of the box on
our systems (which I can access anyway ;)

Small comment - it appears, that on Intel-based SVR4 systems from SNI
(MX300/MX500) it is possible to read/write value of tick from kernel. It
makes preset values unneccessary. At least ones I had to tweak kernel tick
(because hardware clock gone really mad), so probably it is not so bad at
all.

Here is patch which explicitly checks for mips-sni-* in configure.in

well done!!!

greetings
