Whiteboard
As at 2011-03-02 it:
* builds
* testsuite passes
* is in use in large programs
All of this is on Thumb-2 code in softfp mode. Changes will be needed for hard float as the root value set will need to include floating point registers.
Removed the goal as there is no work planned in this area.
Effort: 1M
(?)
