Currently there is no port of eCos to embedded x86 platforms, but such
a port by Cygnus is now under consideration. This would target
processors from the 386 upwards - support for earlier processors would
be difficult because of compiler issues.

Please see the section on porting in the sourceware FAQ for more
details, http://sourceware.cygnus.com/ecos/faq.html
