"as" problem when cross-compiling gcc for PowerPC

[Jingzhao Ou <jasonou at yahoo dot com>]

Hi, 

I tried to cross-compile gcc for PowerPC on RH7.3. I can successfully compile
binutil. However, I got the following error message when compiling gcc-core. It
seems that it tried to use "as -mpp". However, the "as" provided by RH7.3 is
not for PowerPC and doesn't have the option. If I renamed "powerpc-eabi-as" as
"as", then "make" is ok and "make install" will have problem. 

Can any one help me out? Thanks!

Best regards,
Jingzhao
