I'm interested in the MSP71xx eval board, although I may be
the only person in the world who cares.  Specifically, I use the
msp71xx_defconfig.  3.7-rc8 compiles with gcc-4.6.3
without requiring any patches.

I don't know when the last time the RM9000 was compilable,
but I have no interest in that, nor do I have interest in the
FPGA or eval board versions of the MSP7120 (no hardware to
test with).

I had hoped that someone from PMC-Sierra would respond, but
maybe they don't care anymore...
