I was thinking about the same thing.  I did do some search to see there are
folks selling real time software for the ARM, but I am sure it isn't
open software.

The RepRap stuff is running on an ArduinoMAX g-code interpreter.
But the implementation I need to get others to deal with... it's a bit above
my current techie cred level.

Still I think it could be a great item, even if it was LinuxCNC-Lite
(g-code only,
do display on another machine (possibly another Raspberry Pi), really just the
basic of the basics). ... A thought.
