I tried this and is does work. The downside is a couple of the 64bit tests
fail. Obviously I can check for -maix64 first..
Looking closer at the problem showed it to be a conflict with the finding the
correct multilib. The combination of options -maix64 -mcp=powerpc returns
the default libgcc. I would have thought it would have been resolved to
ppc64.
