Comment(by chrisj@…):

 That would be nice and ideally I would like to see this happen how-ever
 the building of the tools across the 12 architectures we provide is
 complex and the maintainer focuses on Fedora and other rpm based open
 source operating systems. I suspect any pending tickets will be out of
 date.

 Unfortunately the tools present do not match anything we have ever
 released. There is a port for the i960 and we dropped support in 2005.
 RTEMS and newlib are currently in a cycle of moving header files to better
 support the standards and this means all tools need updating. Without the
 updates RTEMS does not build.

 If someone in the MacPorts community wishes to pick up support and add all
 12 architectures and keep the ports updated I would be willing to show
 them what needs to be done. We track the current gcc release and have
 rpm's available as the gcc release is announced. Leaving broken ports that
 have no chance of working as available is doing no one a service.
