Wow, I re-wrote the OpenRISC GCC port from scratch when we already had and existing port. This was just because one of the original authors refused to sign over copy right to the FSF.

I wonder how this changes things, can I now look at the original port code and copy some of it to GCC? I wouldn't do that though since my new port is much cleaner and better :).
