Hi, 

I've already talked about porting gas to the 1750, but I have
since deleted the email.  Perhaps you can ask some questions on
the net and see if the work is already underway.

There are going to be some problems, since gas doesn't understand
what to do when memory isn't byte addressable.  It looks like the
right thing to do is go though gas and remove the restriction.

This is quite a large ammount of work.  I'm not aware of any
document describing how to port gas even in the simple case.
