Woah there.

We are trying to change -mcall-foo to -mabi=foo.  I have already added
the infrastructure in rs6000.c.  Please try to use this instead.  Once
I'm done my altivec hell, i will rewrite all -mcall* into -mabi=* for
ppc.

This way we will be able to do things like -mabi=aix,eabi,altivec
etc.  Plus, -mabi is prettier.
