no, it is very similar to PPC, it is very clean RISC implementation.

I don't quite understand what you mean with "if your platform has shared 
libraries", can you rephrase please.
I saw multi-arch framework would require a lot of work for our target, it 
would be nice if we could make it without it.

We have following deprecated macros:
#define EXTRACT_RETURN_VALUE(TYPE, REGBUF, VALBUF)
#define STORE_RETURN_VALUE(TYPE,VALBUF)
#define EXTRACT_STRUCT_VALUE_ADDRESS(REGBUF)
Is it possible to solve them without multi-arch?

of course.

already have it.

ok.

thanks for your help,
