Notes

Compiling:
  - In the Makefile, define a META_METHOD as one of HEADERS,
    BIBOP or RADIX_TREE. All architectures support HEADERS. Only 
    32-bit architectures support BIBOP, and only 64-bit architectures
    support RADIX_TREE.
  - In the Makefile, define ASM as x86, ppc64 or ia64. These are the 
    only supported architectures at this time. Adding additional 
    architectures requires changing the defintions at the top of 
    streamflow.h, and implementing the correct atomic operations in 
    atomic.h and bitops.h.

gcc 3.3.4:
  - Streamflow does not compile with gcc 3.3.4; it causes an internal 
    compiler error when full optimizations are turned on. It has been 
    successfuly compiled with gcc 4.0.2 and gcc 3.4.5.

Machine dependent files:
  - atomic.h and bitops.h are taken from the Linux kernel source, 
    with minor modifications.
