I do not know. History took us down another path ..

  http://git.rtems.org/rtems-source-builder/
 
http://ftp.rtems.org/pub/rtems/people/chrisj/source-builder/source-builder.html

I understood crosstools-ng specialised in building Linux crosstools and 
related packages.

Thank you for the offer. My interest is the RSB working on MSYS2 but do 
not let me stop you. I will always encourage upstreaming of any changes.

I am not sure how you would manage the complex matrix of archs verses 
the versions with the various patches we have. Also the need to keep 
newlib in sync with RTEMS means the tools can quickly change when on the 
development branches.
