No. We currently use RTEMS 4.7.1 in production and 4.9.0 / EPICS 3.14.10
for development (planning to upgrade our production systems when we have 
a chance).
The mvme6100 is our standard platform for LCLS but we also use some 
mvme3100s

The mvme3100 BSP is bundled with RTEMS 4.9 but the BSP for the 6100 is not
(yet).
