Yes - Build from source without any real headaches.
I had to rebuild and relocate the config files tho' - but the
documentation tells you how.  The docs are currently incomplete, but 
there is enough if you are more or less capable!

I have some strange effects that I can't currently explain with
4.0.  Like the GNOME session restoration is now much slower when 
starting X than ever before, even though X itself starts quickly enough.  
This looks like a DNS lookup timeout, but I have not got to the bottom of 
it yet.
