David, Aldy
To clarify on some issues that may be useful in cleaning up of Aldy's e500
patches.
1. e500 is a embedded 32-bit Book-E PPC Core. It is extremely unlikely it
would ever run AIX. It is possible someone could port Darwin to it.
We expect it to run Linux one day, but all of the user space in that case
would have to be rebuilt GCC (built to support the e500/SPE ABI).
I do expect NetBSD to run on it and on other Book-E stuff.
