Hi *,

just want to add something to the configure script to ease with
compiling for non-altivec PPC CPUs like the MPC85xx from Freescale (e500
v2 core).

Here's the diff for the 'configure' script:

- --- configure.orig      2010-01-30 02:17:11.303086681 +0100
+++ configure   2010-01-30 02:23:07.863083437 +0100
@@ -1912,6 +1912,10 @@
             cpuflags="-mcpu=cell"
             enable ldbrx
         ;;
+        e500v2|E500V2)
+            cpuflags="-mcpu=8548 -mhard-float -mfloat-gprs=double"
+            disable altivec
+        ;;
     esac

 elif enabled x86; then


I would really appreciate to see that one included. To answer one of the
questions: the mentioned MPC85xx CPUs are build into a lot of devices
like NAS's (e.g. Synology DiskStation running BusyBox with kernel 2.6)
and other network or media related devices.


Thanx,

Ancoron
