Despite the documentation, most cgen users tend to run it in batch
mode only.  A new port is typically done by replicating an existing
port with a new name throughout source tree, making that build, then
modifying it to represent the actual target CPU.

An old thread gives an outline of the other (cgen-unassisted) parts of
binutils porting: http://sourceware.org/ml/cgen/2003-q4/msg00014.html
