Well, besides what we (M-Labs) do - which includes some more physics
stuff, MMU development, NetBSD port and MiSoC - LM32 is also used in
White Rabbit:

There are also a few implementations of LM32 in proprietary ASICs that I
have heard of.

At the point where those projects started, mor1kx wasn't around, and
LM32 was the only reasonable open softcore. It's a bit annoying that the
small open-CPU community is now split between LM32 and mor1kx. Maybe we
could look more at supporting mor1kx as a CPU option for MiSoC (which
would also make LM32 vs. mor1kx benchmarks easier)...
