Ok.

The idea is to run the testsuite (dejagnu or more) per architecture choosing 
some candidate device. I have used avrtest, but it supports only avr51 and 
avr6. In freaks I found another AVR simulator by buserror - simavr. Even that 
lacks tiny10 and full xmega support.

That said I find the design of simulavr intuitive. Adding couple of 
instructions and devices should not be too difficult. But before that I would 
like to understand how robust the current features are. Can we rely on its 
results as far as ISA is concerned? I'll have to explore these.
