Hi all,
openbios fails to build with gcc 5.2 cross compilers. This is using fedora 23 packages. There's a bug here with complete info:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1282890
The error is:

David Howells' commented in the bug with a suggested fix... but I don't even have a setup to test openbios so I'd prefer if someone else cooks up the patch :)
My understanding is that the earliest CPU we need to be supporting for PPC is the 750 (which should be POWER7 series) although there was interest in using OpenBIOS for PReP which I believe is a 604?
Hervé/Laurent in particular - any further thoughts on this?
ATB,
