Whoa!  Read the release notes.  You must install 7.5 on your
ingester first, before upgrading the workstations.  There are some
things in the OS/2 7.5 menu that will not work if the server is
not at 7.5.

No, there are no binaries.  But there is support for gcc/f2c for
both Solaris and Linux so you can build it yourself.  If you want 
help, let me know.

Only upshot is that the longer it takes, the more you can get for
your money.
