Does it really?
AFAIR bigfoot's proof of concept did run in 31bit big endian with at least the possibility of a seamless PPC EMU.
Anything little endian, 64bit and multicore could and should be build out as a "QBox" directly in and around the Quark kernel.
I fear "done in one go" is a non starter with the limited resources.
