Indeed it does. In fact I have compiled it straight out of the box for
all of the following architectures (shown by uname -a output, slightly
edited to leave out irrelevant details like host names):

SunOS 5.3 Generic sun4c sparc
OSF1  V3.2 62 alpha
hp700ux10 HP-UX B.10.10 A 9000/712 
SunOS 5.5.1 Generic_103641-08 i86pc i386
SunOS 4.1.2 1 sun4c
IRIX64 6.2 03131016 IP25 mips
Linux 2.0.30 #4 Wed Jun 11 13:53:55 MET DST 1997 i686
AIX 2 4 000003531C00
NetBSD 1.2.1 NetBSD 1.2.1 i386
NetBSD 1.2 NetBSD 1.2 sparc
NetBSD 1.2 NetBSD 1.2 pmax
NetBSD 1.2 NetBSD 1.2 vax
NetBSD 1.2.1 NetBSD 1.2.1 hp300
FreeBSD 2.2-STABLE FreeBSD 2.2-STABLE i386
(plus a DEC Ultrix machine, not currently available so I can't run
uname -a on it).

Not bad, eh? The only places I had any real trouble were on a couple
of SGI IRIX machines -- on one, yacc does not like parse.y, and ld
dumps core on the other.
