Well, I don't know if this would work for your purposes, but the AVR
target could use some help. It's about as embedded as you can get.
Forgive me if I don't know the correct terminology. There are 2 external
simulators available for the AVR, both work with GDB and both are
incomplete. What is desperately needed is a simulator that is
"integrated" (?) with GDB (just like all the other, normal simulators)
and is robust enough to run the GCC test suite. This would have an
enormous impact on the ability of the AVR target in GCC to stay up to
date and to test new improvements in that port that are trying to get
online.
