State-Changed-Why:
Yes, we know that the PowerPC port of gcc-3.0 is not
64-bit safe. It will not work on IA-64, Alpha, and other
64-bit host targets. The counter-examples you gave (ppc,
sparc, i386) are all 64-bit hosts. This is a fundamental
problem and only addressed in the gcc-3.1 development
sources. The problem is in the common code, not the PowerPC
port.
