hi guys, 

i was worried that noone would reply, so i started to work on the boards
under win7 on my work laptop. Life is not fair, the arduino ide for windows
comes with all gcc+avr-libc and stuff like that statically built and
integrated into the ide ...

so i am happy to see some activity :)

Hm, nice project! How to proceed? I mean is this near to useful or just
have been started as an idea? If it matters, then the AVR platform probably
won't be powerful enough never to self-build or run any of this, so the avr
code always will be built on some other bigger iron...

As i said, i can test it - given that there is a compiler and binutils to
build a workable firmware ;)
I'm not experienced enough to take maintainership but i might be able to
sort out issues specific to the AVR platform.
