Yep.

The attached appears to drag HP, kicking and screaming, into multi-arch 
partial.  It isn't a ``get out of goal free card'' though.  HP/UX needs 
to leap-frog all the init frame stuff and start using the latest frame 
code.  Otherwize it will just be deleted for relying on deprecated 
mechanisms.

I also don't know if it actually works.
