Dr. Baumgartl, Jan Parthey and folks at the Chemnitz University of Technology
had got substantial success with a port for the TMS320C6x series of
VLIW processors.

We ( A few friends and I - college students then ) had added some
improvements to this port as part of
undergraduate university coursework ( project).
cheers!
