The "caldera.com" domain name -- I'm not sure I'm using
the right terminology here -- expired a while ago.  The
right address is regis...@sco.com for registration of
EM_* and other gABI names.

If you wish to register the EM_TILE64 and EM_TILEPRO
names in the gABI, you most likely will not end up
with your current values.  There are currently fewer
than 200 registered names, and their values reflect
this (all are below 200).

There's certainly nothing wrong with you using the
values you have for your own internal use, or as
temporary ones.

Will you have any great trouble with these names
ending up with different values when officially
registered?

If not, to register EM_* names, we need 3 things:
  - A suggested unique EM_* name (and the ones you've
    got are fine),
  - A short single-line description of the CPU and/or
    architecture, and
  - A owner/contact for it.
