I share the principle of Angel's view. 
Focus is important. 
Some similar kind of decisions was made by Ubuntu project when they started 
their "fork" from Debian - they excluded some platforms which they considered 
to be less in use.    
Support of too many  platform variants takes resources.

Decision what to be "supported"  (compiler, platform itself), of course, should 
be carefully selected by the community.
