Thought about doing cpu-arch early on.
I have mixed feelings on it.
It feels like the right thing to do [and in the end I think it is],
Agreed.
but ... For one, it's really small for all the current ports and we
don't yet generate bfd files [hence lots of work for little gain].
Perhaps, but the most important gain is that the file will be generated
*correctly* from the CPU description. It may be incomplete, but for a BFD
beginner, the generated file can be trusted.
Dunno about tdep.
I'm going to look into this some more at a later time. I think, like
cpu-{arch}, it'll be small (but again, some benefit).
