Dear linux powerpc Maintainers and Users,

recently I have tried to compile a new kernel on a Debian sarge ppc
system (PowerBook5,6 MacRISC3 Power Macintosh).
This is a G4 based system.
Yes.

The build system bailed out with
       BOOTCC  arch/powerpc/boot/4xx.o
        cc1: error: bad value (440) for -mcpu= switch
        make[1]: *** [arch/powerpc/boot/4xx.o] Fehler 1

I have tracked this a few steps and the attached patch made the compile
for me as my compiler gcc-Version 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-13)
cannot produce code for 4xx it seems.
You should normally not need to build the 4xx bootloader part. Make sure
that, i don't know why this happens. Can you look into
arch/powerpc/boot/Makefile, to see what option enables the 4xx build,
and make sure it is disabled in the main config ?
I have tried to do this, but it looks like it is just hardcoded into the 
Makefile  as you can see from the patch. There is probably more that I do not 
understand - thus my report with on the workaround.
