Quoting Paul Koning <paul_kon...@dell.com>:
If BITS_PER_UNIT is all that's left, could you use some genxxx.c to extract that from tm.h and drop it into a tm-bits.h in the build directory? Then you could include that one instead of tm.h.
Yes, that's what I said. Only there is little point in writing the generator program right now if all it ever does is spit out #define BITS_PER_UNIT 8 We can add the generator program when we (re-) add a word addressed target, or add a bit addressed one.
