Btw, while I see very sporadical testresults for arm-rtems and older results for v850 and sparc and powerpc-rtems testresult posting on gcc-testresults no such results exist for i386-rtems in 2012 which means it's current status is in the dark. If you want a port to be live show that it is live by posting regular testresults to gcc-testresults. Thanks, Richard.
