Re: forwarded message from NIIBE Yutaka

 I've been working for porting GNU/Linux to Hitachi SuperH processor.
 (Please visit http://www.m17n.org/linux-sh/ for the project.)

 SuperH is the CPU for embedded target, PDA, and video game machine.
 Our target tuple would be:
   SH-VENDER-LINUX-GNU

[...]

 Currently, there's the broad vendor as "PC".  But the target for
 SuperH is not PC.

 How should we name the vendor?  Any comments are appriciated.

How about using "unknown"? ie.

sh-unknown-linux-gnu

This is what is typically done for embedded targets.

OK, I see.  I'll do with "unknown".  Thanks all for the clarification.
