Great! If we go with Segher's suggestion for 64-bit then we end up with this:
32-bit: -mcpu=604 64-bit: -mcpu=970 -mno-altivec
I think you can use "-mcpu=power4" here, this is the old default value for gcc.
It seems they are effectively the same, so I don't have any strong preference either way.
I prefer Mark's explicit variant, ideally with some explanatory comment.
Thanks Andreas! Laurent, can you resubmit accordingly with a brief comment for each summarising why these flags have been chosen?
I can, but I'm not able to build openbios for target ppc64 on ppc64 host.
Is this normal ?
It definitely shouldn't be.

What operating system are you using to build OpenBIOS on? Is your operating system 32 bit or 64 bit? What version of GCC are you using?
