This is probably a stupid Q, but ... has anyone tried porting Calibre to run on ARM Linux?

(Asking because I'm in the process of acquiring an OpenPandora palmtop, which runs a tailored version of Angstrom Linux (http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/), and it seems to me that with a 600MHz Cortex A8 the OpenPandora ought to be up to running Calibre, not just an ebook reader client like FBReader.)
