Such architectures are really on the wrong track imo. They are also a pain for any kernel maintainer, including the arch maintainers themselves. Afaics all major architectures are uptodate in 2.6, and given how fast architecture updates get merged I see no real valid excuse for an architecture to be maintained externally. Maybe I'm missing something, and if so, please enlighten me.
