Comment (by Amaan Cheval):

 Regarding the x86_64 tools,
 [https://lists.rtems.org/pipermail/devel/2018-March/020586.html Gedare
 said this on the  mailing list]:

 > The x86_64 tools have a recipe in RSB, you can give it a try. The
 > tasks identified there are in two categories:
 > 1. GCC multilib support for FPU -- You should ask Joel to look into
 > this for you. :)
 > 2. Newlib support for setjmp/longjmp, and anything else that should be
 > in the libc. You should do this. Join newlib mailing list, check out
 > the source, and find the current i386 and x86_64 implementations.
 > (Hint: newlib.git/newlib/libc/machine/[i386 x86_64]).
 > 3. TLS. There are multiple ways to implement it. I don't know what is
 > preferred for this. See https://www.akkadia.org/drepper/tls.pdf for a
 > thorough background.
