Defininf a C function with the name of a PPC specific assembler
function is pretty stupid. To the best of my knowledge wmb() is the
generic name for the thing you are looking for.

Keep in mind, I'm talking about MkLinux, _not_ LinuxPPC.  wmb() is a
linux-specific term, as far as I know.  The above is in mach.
