[Cbe-oss-dev] ps3-kexec-tools (latest git update) compiling problems (on PS3)

Nope, just some changes I made to the kexec build system probably make 
it a little more picky about the compilers.

By default, it will try ${target}-gcc as the compielr for the purgatory, 
but if that fails, we fall back to gcc. The problem looks like your 
default target gcc builds 32-bit objects by default.

Your installation of ppu-gcc works because it defaults to 64-bit, it's 
nothing to do with the Cell specific stuff :)

So, all you need to do is make sure $TARGET_CC will build objects 
suitable for your purgatory - in this case, powerpc64. 
TARGET_CC='gcc -m64' should work in most cases.

(although, to make things easier for people, maybe purgatory builds for 
ppc64 should automatically add -m64).

Cheers,
