May I suggest restoring H8 support? These MCUs are still supported by
binutils and gcc and there are a few people who still use them.
The attached patch is a diff against revision 77221613 (from 22md March
2016), the last revision before H8 support removal. As you can see, the
changes are minor, mostly linker script name and its location.
Best regards,
Jan
