For the curious (why would you be curious? I don't know. I don't even
know why I started doing this!) I don't know if this simulator was ever
able to run GDB tests or simple newlib binaries but my guess is not
recently.
A z8002 binary (gdb.base/break) has a .text section of size 0xeb24 or
so. The heap is 0x5000, the stack is 0x1000, and AFAICT a z8002 has
only 0x10000 memory.
A z8001 has much more memory available but only in 64k segments, and
.text is:
0 .text 00019a94 00000000 00000000 00000120 2**1
CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, CODE
i.e. much more than the one segment it can use.
I was trying to multi-arch the z8k on a lark, but it's not enough of a
lark to try to get around _that_. Let it die.
