--- Comment #4 from John Paul Adrian Glaubitz <glaubitz at physik dot fu-berlin.de> --- Yes, it would be nice if those were kept open. There is actually a demand for a working compiler for the SPE target as it's used in embedded systems. Luckily, LLVM has improved a bit on the SPE target so that users can switch to LLVM for some projects for the time being. Having SPE support in gcc would be absolutely desirable though.
