libopt looks great, but I don't know how to handle it.
After setting the toolprefix manually, I call the software in this way:
         ./powerpc-linux-libopt -d /ppcroot.smalllib /ppcroot

/ppcroot/ contains my RAMDisk. The program executes up to the end of main
without error messages, but /ppcroot.smallib/ is empty after execution.

Is it possible, that the script runs only with HardHat Linux?
It seems that when DynamicLibrary.generate(...) is called, self.optimizer
is always None.
The optimizers are read from an optinfo file, which I don't have. Where to
get one?

I have also no idea, what libindex is good for.

Any hint how to fix it?
