Yes, that was apparent, but the help is appreciated.

With some small tweaks most of pypy is compiling, so I think it
shouldn't take much.

I've figured out a lot of other issues already.

So I cd'd into 'pypy' from the source root, and ran:

./test_all.py rlib/test/test_rsocket.py

Everything passes except one test which was skipped:

rlib/test/test_rsocket.py:35: test_netlink_addr SKIPPED

Looking at the source:

 35 def test_netlink_addr():
 36     if getattr(rsocket, 'AF_NETLINK', None) is None:
 37         py.test.skip('AF_NETLINK not supported.')

That seems expected given my platform.

Is there a way to do an incremental translate?  Currently, every time
I run translate, it does the whole thing again, which makes the whole
fix/build cycle very slow.
