+*memtest86-3.0-r1 (06 Sep 2002)
+
+  06 Sep 2002; Matthew Kennedy <mkennedy@gentoo.org>
+  memtest86-3.0-r1.ebuild, files/digest-memtest-3.0-r1, ChangeLog :
+
+  Installs the binary distributed with memetest86 rather than
+  compiling it from source (which doesn't work with gcc3.2 at
+  runtime). Upstream has been notified, but no response at the
+  moment. Resolves bug #4088.
