Debian SuperH port



Hi there,

I'm working on Debian SuperH port in Japan, and here are patches for
dpkg I'm now using.  I wonder if these modifications are acceptable
for the official release of Debian GNU/Linux.

With these patches we can have two Debian architectures for SuperH
family: "sh" is for little endian, "sheb" is for big endian
configuration.

In terms of GNU toolchain, there are four different configurations for
SuperH Linux, namely sh3/sh3eb/sh4/sh4eb.  You must take care not to
mix up binaries of SH-3 with ones of SH-4.

However, there is little difference between them except that only the
latter have FPU instructions, so I think kernel level math emulation
(not yet implemented) could cope with this problem.

Since SH-4 can run SH-3 binaries, I'm going to build sh3/sh3eb
binaries as Debian sh/sheb binaries for now.

Finally, I'm going to write and release some HOWTOs on SuperH (and
Dreamcast) development.  Any comments would be appreciated, and I
would answer your questions if possible.

Regards,
