Interestingly it builds fine for me, even for 32-bit configs, I assume because my toolchains are 32/64-bit they are able to cope with it. I'll try and built a 32-bit only toolchain to catch these problems in future.
Yeah, I was just asking myself the same question after seeing your patch on the list as the kernel package builds fine on Debian's powerpc port [1]. However, the powerpc Debian package always builds a 64-bit kernel image as well in order to be able to use a 32-bit userland on a 64-bit kernel when the hardware is capable of 64-bit. So, your guess above might actually be true, but I haven't tested it. What I do know is that "ld" is definitely not available on PowerPC e500 while "lwz" is available, see 3-68 in the e500 reference manual [2]. Thanks for the quick fix! Adrian
