Just trying to figure out how this will help the CoCo if the gcc6809 
project is converted to a gcc6811 project.  Btw, I thought I read somewhere 
that the "HC11" is the most used CPU in embedded systems, but I'm not 
totally sure about the CPU name... but it wasn't the 6809, which is very 
hard to believe.  In fact, I still don't believe it. :)
