Yes.  Untar it, cd into the xboard directory, type "./configure --enable-zippy",
when that finishes, type "make" and "make install" and you should be set.  I am
using 4.2.6, later versions seem to have a "hang" issue with Crafty that I have
not found.  Sort of like either xboard or crafty misses a "done" message, or
they get out of order or something, and things hang and xboard just refuses
additional games until I kill and restart.  4.2.6 does not fail at all for me...
