I did not intend that the tools support should be unavailable, and you
are perfectly justified in helping users develop and maintain tools
for upcoming ports.

My question is more that if the port is not available publicly, there
is no public discussion about the port, and no one publicly knows what
is going on with this port, then why should there be public tools
available?

I don't have a problem with providing tools for unsupported targets--I
just don't quite get the motivation.
