No, it won't be added to existing versions. Not that you'd use it in any case...

FWIW, TC 13.0beta1 boots and runs fine on my 486 DX4 laptop, a
fter re-doing my modifications to the tc-config script (enable swap partitions earlier and comment-out some modprobe commands) to allow for the laptop's limited RAM. So no repeat of the issue with TC12 as reported in the AMD K6 thread.

In fact I'm posting from that same laptop now, using Elinks from the elinks-nodep package!
