I'd very much like to retain this in the tree as we've just been waiting 
  for the tree-SSA merge before picking up maintenance of this one once 
more (our production version of ip2k-gcc has had a lot of work done on 
it but and I'm planning to merge this back over the next couple of 
months).  FWIW we've also got an ip3k compiler that we'll be 
contributing sometime soon.


Regards,
Dave
