I'm making progress on it again.

I have a working arm-eabi-binutils port ready to commit.

I almost have a working arm-eabi-gcc port.  Though I seem to
be stuck on some issue with Perl5.14 on 10-CURRENT?
https://redports.org/buildarchive/20130625154000-12976/

Locally, I've been able to build U-Boot for BeagleBone
by having the port depend on arm-eabi-gcc.
