No, it supports arm as well. (And I merged a recent patch to support arm
EABI.) I remember hearing about a PPC patch (although I never tracked that
down), and I was looking into what I needed to do to make it support x86-64.

That's the general idea, yes. (In this case what was merged is a reworking of
a patch I already merged, which I could essentially ignore for now.) The
problem is at a higher level: I'd created a fork based of a project that
looked abandoned, but it turned out not to be abandoned, so the fork looks
like a bad idea in retrospect. *shrug* No shortage of other projects to
work on. (Like QEMU: I still haven't managed to install the x86_64 version
of ubuntu. An older version hung when it got to the desktop, in last week's
version I couldn't even get the bios to bring up grub. Need to thump on it
again, but I'm not quite sure how to debug this.)
