FYI, it looks like a huge number of the failures are from the following
in 32-bit mode:
/home/bergner/gcc/build/gcc-fsf-mainline-asan-debug/powerpc64-linux/32/libsanitizer/asan/.libs/libasan.so: undefined reference to `__sync_fetch_and_add_8'^M
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status^M
Kosta, we don't have a __sync_fetch_and_add_8 in 32-bit, since
we don't have the necessary hardware instructions to do a 64-bit
fetch and add. How is this supposed to work? There are some
libatomic routines we could call (eg, __atomic_fetch_add_8).
Is that an option? ...or maybe we shouldn't even be attempting
call a 64-bit fetch/add for things larger than a register size?
