It is just a note about the status of the powerpc families.] This probably has an implicit tier-1 context. For tier-2 TARGET_ARCH=powerpc64 and TARGET_ARCH=powerpc are still officially gcc 4.2.1 based as far as I know. There could be others for all I know. Or may be xtoolchain is for-now the official way for TARGET_ARCH=powerpc64 . But that still would not cover TARGET_ARCH=powerpc as far as I know. (I've been one of those trying to figure out what all is needed for modern libc++ based FreeBSD on the powerpc families. clang 3.9.1 and related tools are not there yet. 32-bit powerpc has code generation problems. C++ exception handling is messed up for both 32-bit and 64-bit. xtoolchain does not build an operational lib32 for powerpc64 and does not exist for 32-bit powerpc. At least that is my understanding of the status.) === Mark Millard markmi at dsl-only.net
