Unfortunatly, this one isn't so obvious, sigh!  Should "Hitachi" or
"Mitsubishi" appears in an historic context then that name should be
retained - we need to avoid rewriting history.  For instance:

-Hitachi America, Ltd. sponsored the support for H8/300, H8/500, and
+Renesas America, Ltd. sponsored the support for H8/300, H8/500, and
 Super-H processors.

"Hitachi" (a specific legal entity), and not "Renesas" sponsored the H8
development.  At that time Renesas did not exist.

Similarly, for specific products that didn't survive the merger, I think
it's again better to let  the comments reflect history (Is the E7000
still live?  For the d10v, I've never had success finding anything
public on it and I've tried a number of sources, would you have a pointer?)

I see that you've carefully avoided touching the SH-5.  My hunch that
having the sh4/sh5 split would, in the long run, make lives easier was
correct :-)

enjoy,
