[MLton-user] mlton and netbsd

[Matthew Fluet]

Bootstrapping with an smlnj-mlton build is infeasible on pretty much any 
hardware.  1GB is just about enough for a (32-bit) self-compile, but 
you'll need a working mlton on your platform.

I'm surprised that the latest NetBSD isn't sufficiently binary compatible 
with the older mlton.
