Hi.
GCC 4.5.0 will ship with support for lm32. This is an IP which can be
configured in several ways (with or without barrel shifter, and with or
without a hardware multiplier).
To be usable in all cases, it has to support multilib. The support is
present but broken: the "MULTILIB_OPTIONS" variable is located in the
wrong file!
I submitted a small patch from a colleague of mine
(http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2010-03/msg00307.html) and sent three
PING already. But since there is no listed maintainer for lm32, it seems
that it doesn't draw any attention from anyone who can approve it, so I
cannot check it in.
If we do not apply it, the multilib option for this new target will be
broken in 4.5.0. I know we are late in the development stage, but lm32
is a new target and reading the patch makes it clear that it cannot
break any other platform.
I know you guys are all very busy but I am not able to reach anyone
interested in lm32 on gcc-patches. Could someone with global commit
rights have a look at this patch and approve/reject/delay it?

The patch is ok.
I wonder why we even accepted a new port without a maintainer though.
David?
I thought Jon Beniston was maintainer of this. He may not
have listed himself.
FWIW I filed a PR for an ICE on this target last week:

Thanks,

PS/ Note that I don't use this architecture myself and I am not
interested in becoming its maintainer -- I just happen to know
someone who uses it and noticed that GCC was broken.
