I don't think so. This is an embedded list, so x86 is just one among
many architectures here.

Well, did you actually try using RTAI on, say, any  PowerPC  or  MIPS
system lately? With a somewhat recent Linux kernel? Running real-time
aaplications  in  user-space? With a standard API (POSIX) ? And being
able to debug these? [And please note that I did not ask for  any  of
the  more  advanced features, like working FPU support, or SMP, or 64
bit systems, ...]

All this (and much more) is working out of the box in Xenomai.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
