[LLVMdev] x86 cross compiler for ppc fails to build

[Maarten Faddegon]

I try to build a cross powerpc compiler, but llvm-gcc fails.

I have binutils installed for powerpc and verified they are working with 
a simple hello world program.

$ powerpc-750-linux-gnu-as --version
GNU assembler 2.16.1

However, the xgcc build during the seems to generate instructions that 
are not understood by the assembler.
I forced xgcc to output assembly and tried to use the assembler on the 
result manually.
There are instructions like this one "lis 30, ha16(completed.5554.b)" 
which are not understood apparently?
Should this instruction be understood by the assembler?

Thanks,
  Maarten
