[Dale Johannesen]

points out that llvm-gcc-4.2 doesn't build on MacOSX PowerPC machines.
I believe that the gcc-4.2 target-specific code for this environment  
assumes that
gcc's XFloat mode (==128-bit long double) is supported, and makes no  
provision for the
possibility that it isn't.  The dependency was introduced in FSF  
between 4.0 and 4.2.
That is, this isn't a recent regression (and the way to fix it, at  
least the best way if not
the quickest,  is to implement PPC long double.)

Here is your chance to prove me wrong!  Has anybody ever gotten this  
configuration to build?
