The lack of a gcc/g++ port is going to be the main obstacle, see http://sourceware.cygnus.com/ecos/faq.html#porting_compiler for details of compiler dependencies. Your best bet may be to contact Motorola directly and find out whether or not they have any plans for a gcc port. This need not involve Cygnus, it could be happening in-house or by a third party, in which case I would not necessarily know about it. Bart Veer // eCos net maintainer
