	Hmm, well I thought that problem had been addressed in egcs-1.1.1.
The problem is that GCC is generating a memory reference with a
displacement (65536) which is larger than 16 bits.  Someone needs to try
to track down why the PowerPC port thinks that is a valid address instead
of splitting it into an intermediate offset in a register.

	Either GCC is generating that offset itself and the normal tests
for valid types of addressing are failing.  Or, something in the PowerPC
port explicitly is generating a memory operation which bypasses the tests
and is not explicitly checking for exceeding this offset limit.
