https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=49854 --- Comment #4 from John Paul Adrian Glaubitz --- Yes, it would be nice if those were kept open. There is actually a demand for a working compiler for the SPE target as it's used in embedded systems. Luckily, LLVM has improved a bit on the SPE target so that users can switch to LLVM for some projects for the time being. Having SPE support in gcc would be absolutely desirable though.

But it's merely a user's suggestion, and it's up to developers to decide what to do with all these PRs containing spe, e500, and 854[08] in their Target and Summary fields.
