It certainly was at one time.  But it's pretty much hopelessly outdated 
and only frustrating for someone who's trying to start from the 
beginning now.  Even the simple stuff doesn't work anymore.  
Unfortunately, it seems to be the only thing that exists outside the 
source code, and I couldn't get that to compile on any of the machines I 
have available, (including fc5 and rhel4).
