I find it rather less useful than Plumbers'.

I just removed ixp4xx from Debian as the kernel image wouldn't fit in
the NSLU2's kernel partition any more (even after disabling quite a few
features that are enabled in most other configurations).  iop32x was
removed for the same reason, a while ago.

Our 'legacy' (which I take to mean pre-v7) configurations are now
kirkwood, mv78xx0, orion5x (all about to converge to mvebu) and
versatile.
