    Hi, Arnd.
    I am really sorry to reply so late, since I seldom use this email account
    in recent years. I will add my new email account to related bits.

    Let me clarify the status of UniCore. It's a real cpu-core product,
    integrated into PKUnity SoC, and sold in a large amount of embedded boxes,
    such as cloud terminals and set top boxes. Surely, we still use the port
    internally and keep doing developments in other projects. So, I really
    appreciate having unicore32 port in the tree.

    As to gnu toolchain of UniCore, I have already discussed it in my group,
    and I'll do my best to propel it forward.

    Thanks,
    Guan Xuetao
