[Bug c/20277] New: -mcpu=power4 vs. -maltivec


Since 3.4.x, you can't use both -mcpu=power4 and -maltivec on ppc targets. This
is critical that it's fixed before 4.0 as the linux kernel will rely on this.
It's currently using -mcpu=970 as a workaround since it has one file using
-maltivec (the RAID6 code), but this workaround isn't suitable for 4.0 due to
implicit generation of vector code.
