 SYSTEM-SPECIFIC HINTS
 
-for OpenBSD:
-  It's reported for CMU CL (by Darren Bane on the comp.lang.lisp newsgroup,
-  2002-04-22) that OpenBSD 3.0 has stricter ulimit values, and/or enforces
-  them more strictly, than its predecessors, and so CMU CL's initial mmap()
-  won't work unless you increase the limit on the data segment, e.g. with
-    ulimit -S -d 524288
-  before you run CMU CL. The same is probably true of SBCL, but hasn't been
-  tested yet. (As of sbcl-0.7.3, SBCL has only been tested on OpenBSD 2.9
-  and earlier.)
+for NetBSD:
+  NetBSD 2.0 and above are required because of the lack of needed
+  signal APIs in NetBSD 1.6 and earlier.
