Gene is right in what he is saying. 

I want to warn you on the m32c.  It is a new port
and incomplete.  It does not currently support interrupts.
We would welcome the addition of interrupt support.
And to make matters worse, you need to be using gdb
CVS to run the examples not gdb 6.8.

$ m32c-rtems4.10-run m32c-m32csim-ticker.ralf
unknown m32c machine type 0x0
NULL pointer dereference

But it runs with my locally built gdb from CVS.

I usually recommend sparc/sis as an easy first BSP.
This page should help you with that BSP:
