Yes, but I am not sure it's stable though. My main bug report
regarding stability is a hang that happens with Paolo Ciarrocchi when
he runs mmap001 program from memtest suite. 

Please report any bug you may hit (or submit a bug to the Bug Tracking
System at Sourceforge).

I already added this request to our Todo list and I am willing to do
that as soon as I have some spare time. However I don't know when
that's going to happen :-)

Thanks for your request. Even if I can't fix that freeze now, I'd like
to know what may be causing it.
