Works fine on ppc too, as usual the -fpic workaround from Geoff
http://discus.anu.edu.au:80/~geoffk/egcs-3b.diff is needed to pass the
threads related tests.

I'm working on a 1.1.2pre1 compiled 2.2.1 kernel on a 601 since a few days,
no problems yet.

Nearly the whole RedHat Rawhide suite compiles (with no optimization
workarounds) and works fine. 2 packages generate the "illegal assembler"
bug we are just looking at, and compilation of lynx still blows up due to
excessive memory usage (glibc's -D__NO_STRING_INLINES is enough to work
around that one).

Overall this is excellent behaviour!
