I agree that a big quality for a gcc-farm is to have
a variety of platforms (ie many different cpu architectures, many
different os/distro/...).
It is not that interesting to have only a big bunch of intel/amd 
all running the same distro.

In that sense, gcc-farm used to have mips and arm systems but
it seems these are all dead.

It is however good that we e.g. have ppc64 beasts.

I would welcome the revival of the mips and arm systems.
And things such as aarch64 systems, darwin, ...
would be very helpful.

Thanks anyway for gcc-farm, it is for sure useful and
I use it regularly (e.g. ppc64 is used for daily valgrind builds).
Having more different platforms would make it more
useful.
