Yes, but for the moment the new targets are ARM and MIPS.  I'll add
x86 as well, but later.  In the embedded world the x86 parts still are
not dominant due to issues with power and heat and the fact that the
x86 mainstream is not targetted at that market.  This is why Intel
does ARM as well, to cover the embedded space.

Later,
