None that I know, at least.

In general, standalone applications are a rarely used special feature,
and the few people who actually ever used this for a purpose probably
used custom code and custom linker scripts, so the mainline code is
eventually not that good supproted.

It does, but I doubt anybody ever used standalone applications on
these.

Best regards,
