Is anyone maintaining a side project of Xen 4.3 that retains support for x86/32bit? I was hoping to apply RT-Xen to a neat project in the embedded space, but the current release uses a Xen 4.3 baseline, which doesn''t have x86_32 support. As a side note, the 32bit is still alive and well in the embedded market, primarily since many 64bit processors are not yet packaged to satisfy various form factor and power requirements.

I know ''resurrecting'' 32 bit support is probably off the table, but at the same time, it would be nice to have a shoe for this foot. :-) Any ideas?
