Are you referring to simulavr (not simulavrxx) releases?  I ran a
couple of minor bugfix releases on the old codebase to eventually
merge some really old patches I had sitting around.  So far, the old
simulavr tool is still in use by avr-libc's test suite, and as it uses
certain features (like the "coredump") of that, and builds out of the
box on virtually any unix-like system, I currently don't see anyone
who would spend the time of changing that test suite for another
simulator.

I cannot tell you anything about intentions of the simulavrxx
author(s) though.  I once tried compiling it on FreeBSD, but never
really got it to complete that task, for reasons I currently don't
remember anymore.
