Each architecture needs an assembly stub generator for most syscalls, a crt0.S, plus adjustments for which syscalls are "special" (as in special ed) on that architecture. There are also a couple of header files which need per-architecture configuration information. All in all it is usually a few hours worth of work, no more.
