-##### Implement amd64 Linux compatibility for x86_64 64-bit kernel
-* Add a syscall table which translates 64-bit Linux system calls to DragonFly ones
+##### Implement Linux compatibility for the x86_64 DragonFly kernel
+* Add a syscall table which translates Linux system calls to DragonFly ones
* Add support for ELF binary detection.
DragonFly/i386 supports the execution of 32 bit Linux binaries; it
Some of the other *BSD systems may already have implemented such a mechanism.
+Given Linux software available in pkgsrc and dports is i386 only at this date (2013-03-06), it would be more practical to avoid working on amd64 linux applications at first.
