I haven't seen any objections; obviously some pretty large patches will be 
needed to bring the port up to date, replace the Linuxthreads port by an 
NPTL port and generally update sysdeps files for several years of libc 
changes that involve all-targets updates, so they are in sync with the 
libc versions again.  And then he'll need to keep a watch on libc commits 
for any that require am33 updates to keep am33 in sync, and make such 
updates to the port as and when such libc commits are made.
