Well, the Xtensa bits are a bit complicated, because Xtensa supports configurable CPU cores, so they have some strange Perl scripts that are needed when building the toolchain. But this Xtensa support has never been updated since it has been merged quite some time ago, and no active contributor has any Xtensa hardware platform to test the changes on, so maybe we could drop the support for Xtensa altogether.
