Dear Maintainer,
Please could you add the attached definition for CloudABI, a new POSIX-like
runtime (currently) for amd64/x86_64 and arm64/aarch64.
I'm requesting this as a step in getting a CloudABI toolchain packaged on
Debian. I'm not seeking to introduce a new Debian port or multiarch.
I've posted [1] with some background info and am happy to answer queries,
comments etc. there; or whereever you'd prefer.

Thanks again for your work on this. It looked like an extremely
interesting project. But given Ed's previous message about the
potential undesirability of adding support for it into dpkg, and that
it looks now unmaintained upstream [U], I'm just going to close this.
It also looks like WASI might be an interesting alternative to CloudABI.

[W] https://wasi.dev/
Thanks,
Guillem
