We once had one HPPA-HP-UX  system that reported to the dashboard, but using 
aCC. The machine died and I have not heard of a replacement yet. I guess it is 
just a matter of taste if this will be narrowed to Linux or not. In any case 
please try if you can just drop the existing workarounds. The best would 
probably to just replace their set() with yours and see if it works. If it 
does you can remove the if(Linux) and only match for the processor.
