Any objections? 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. -- Joseph S.
