The question is: Does the OpenEXR source compile *and work* as-is on those  
platforms, or does "has been ported" simply mean "someone, somewhere,  
knows what must be changed to make it work on platform X"?

The big issue, though, is whether anyone even cares about this program. I  
could just release the source and let the users worry about portability,  
but I would have to clean it up a bit first, and I'm not going to make  
that effort unless people will benefit from it.
