Is it just me, it seems that only sparc/mips devs want that kind of
change and non none of the x86/amd64 devs...
I still dont see what practical advantage that would bring to x86/amd64
users or developers?
If you haven't figured out the reason we are pushing for this sort of
thing yet, it is because x86 is unsupported in Gentoo (if you consider
what all the other arches have to do to be "supported"). As a result,
it causes the quality of the portage tree to suffer. Time and time
again, it has been brought up that x86 should have an arch team, yet
nobody ever acts on it. Well, merging the "two" arches will help solve
this problem.
