OK.  Perhaps gcc should be refusing to build with older binutils
perhaps?  It sounds like gcc-3.4 + binutils-2.14 or older won't work
unless we ensure that any -mppc/altivec/etc type flags that gcc itself
would pass, excluding -many, are re-passed by the kernel itself.

Its just the 2.14 + gcc 3.4 combo that does not work.
binutils 2.12, 2.13  and 2.15 works ok with gcc 3.4.

Does gcc not pass down -many with 2.12/2.13, or does -many actually work
there?

[snip]

looks like gas 2.14 has different -many behaviour.

Yes, gas 2.14 has a broken -many behavior, as I've described before.
But if only gcc-3.4 always passes -many, how common (i.e. is anyone
shipping) gcc-3.4 + binutils-2.14 ?
