The support for glibc never made it upstream as far as I can tell either.
What are others thoughts on this?
I believe the architecture is dead, so I wouldn't lose any sleep if it got
deprecated across the board. While my tester includes nds32le-elf and
nds32be-elf, there's no gdbsim, so those targets don't provide much, if any,
additional coverage over targets in the tester.

Hi Jeff,
As for gdbsim/openocd, I remember that we did have nds32 contributions
previously:
- gdb: http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2013-07/msg00223.html
- openocd: http://openocd.zylin.com/1259
I suppose they have recently been dropped from the current gdb/openocd
repository
due to the lack of maintenance. I will reach out to Andes members to inquire
whether
the architecture is still considered to be available in gdb/openocd.
