Some attempts are going on with AP7 series. It is not the processor mode that
poses a problem but the memory limitation. Memory footprint is the fat issue.
Despite the fact that AP7 series has MMU and allows external 16-bit SRAM for
additional memory, experience shows that virtualization still remains a fairly
big challenge.
UC3 series have no MMU at all. Except for UC3A, no other series has extended
memory support either. AFAIK, it is mostly a closed alley.
