What would be ideal is if a CPU company would publish the software they
actually used to *manufacture* the darn CPU itself.

No, actually it wouldn't be. It would be of no use to you because you wouldn't have access to any of the software that runs that code anyway.

Is such a software beast possible to get??  Does it exist?
(I'm not familiar with how CPUs are made.)

I'd *really* like it for the ARM7TDMI.

You will not find basically *any* models for ARM processors as ARM waggles lawyers as soon as they get wind of it, see the nnARM story:

If you want models for processor cores, www.opencores.org is probably the best place to start. However, I'm not sure it's going to really do what you want.

Additionally, you might want to consider the skyeye emulator. It seems to emulate some ARM stuff reasonably well.
