New description:

 The SPARC BSPs currently support the greth driver only for the legacy
 TCP/IP stack. Support needs to be provided for this driver for the rtems-
 lwip stack.

 The existing driver in the RTEMS legacy network stack is available as an
 example. There may be an older lwip driver available from Gaisler but the
 greth and lwip are likely to have been updated since this was written.

 Determining the starting point(s) and path forward is an important step in
 this project.
