An ARM target will take some doing.  It can be done with buildroot, but 
it's going to take someone's effort to do it.  Kristian proved you can 
run Astlinux on a gumstix.  It was done and never maintained.  It's 
going to require a special branch.  While I think this is interesting, 
the current set of developers have their hands full maintaining what we 
have and trying to get new features and bug fixes done on X86 targets.

I guess all geeks need toys :)
