Well, it looks like that.  I'm in the middle of porting (static only).
I think that I need to do some paper work for FSF about copyright
assignment.  I will do.

BTW, I've found that current implementation of GNU Tool-chain (GNU
binutils, GNU CC) doesn't have support of PIC generation (which
enables shared library).

Jim Blandy (who visits Mule Project now) suggests me that we need to
define dynamic linking interface (GOT, PLT, etc.) for SuperH, if it's
not defined yet.  He also suggests me I should ask to Binutils people.

When I finish static only version, I'll try to dynamic loading
(perhaps, asking binutils people).

Any pointer is welcome.

Later,
